Did a search for this...Didn't turn up anything.
One of the old bars cam out no problem but the other one won't budge. I'm trying to remove them with the A arms still on the car so I don't really want to light it on Fire (I know someone is gonna say "use heat"). Anyway, I was getting so frustrated (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) that I picked up the drill and was about to drill a hole in the front end cap for a punch. But the little voice in my head whose always fixing my 914 mistakes said "STOP, go inside and look it up on the internet" So anybody BTDT, and have any suggestions? TIA Mike D. |

I just pried mine out. You can take tha front cap off and pound it out with a punch and hammer. You might have to take the valence off, which requires you to remove the front bumper, but its easy.
