WIS perhaps? How to remove the front grill.

Anyone know how to remove the front grill on the W222? WIS instructions = even better, but I can't even find a Youtube video on this. Thanks!

Just curious: why do you want to remove it?

Potential addition of external radar detector/laser jammer

I believe I have a water intrusion issue. When I take it to the car wash or it rains heavily, I get the sensor dirty error message. Eventually it stops. I was doing an inspection and noticed that the chrome colored lip on the right side (camera cover) is missing. The plastic face has separation at the top edge. It is from this point I think water is entering. My thought is to seal it with something clear like super glue. My concern is whether or not this is a cover for a system behind it, or if it is eclectically part of something

2228880100 left center trim strip (130 in diagram), 2228210236 radar sensor cover (50). Looks as though may only need to replace trim strip of what I can tell from pictures about $30 from dealer, $20 online. See attachment for sensor located behind cover.
