Lower grille

I need to replace the lower center grille (between the fog lights). Is this an easy DIY (i.e. just pop it in) job? Anything I should know in advance, like whether I should hold a particular tab back, etc.?

Thanks in advance. Happy holidays, all!

The lower grill easily snaps on and off the bumper.

Thanks, W211. Any idea if there will be any problems with no grille there at all?

Jimbo, that's my car. Used to drive a 190E, but otherwise the MB's are for the other members of my family.

The only potential problem you "might" encounter is damages to your transmission cooler as it will be exposed to larger debris w/o the grill, but I really doubt that will happen.

Ordered one today to nip any potential problems in the bud. Thanks for your help.
