Help?

I'm new to this site. But anyways I ordered a grill off eBay and I tried to install it and found out it was about a inch longer. Is there anything I can do? Or do I just have to play with it and bend it or what?

Thanks

Verify it's actually that much longer before you cut with a dremel tool etc. I thought mine was too long but got it to fit. I'd measure the one you received
from ebay to the old OEM unit. They should be the same (nearly) length.

Yep. If you like I can verify the OEM number on the inside.

I would think so. I had to wrestle mine into place cause it's at an angle. You
shouldn't need to trim unless we're talking 1/8" on each side.
