Replacing my stock 2020 C43 grille
I've seen quite a few YouTube videos on the grille removal process for the C300, C400, C450, generally W205. Are there any differences with the 2020 AMG C43?
I'm asking because I got started and for the most part, all the nuts and bolts look identical but I am still not able to completely remove the front bumper yet.
Also, should I disconnect battery? I've seen a lot of people not doing this but I've also seen a few people recommending disconnecting the battery so not to trip the air bags. Is this true?

Bump, since I still cannot remove the grille for whatever reason. It's fairly loose but still feels like something is holding it, right around the area underneath both headlights. Also, I have the illuminated star and I disconnected that wire, but there seems to be another wire also running from the illuminated star and I can't seem to find where to disconnect that. I do not have the 360 camera so I know it's not that. Maybe it's the auto collision brake?
