2010 R350: removal of grill emblem assembly

Hello:

Any advice for removing the grill emblem assembly? It appears that you just rotate counterclockwise on newer models, but doesn't seem to work for 2010 model. I'm looking to install an aftermarket lighted emblem.

thanks in advance!

I am not sure about 2011 and 2012. I still think 2006 - 2010 models have the same grill assy.

Here is the link how to remove it.

Those pics are helpful, thanks. Looks like the grill has to come out in order to get to the tabs. Thanks!
