    that'll be the only reason why I buy the normal one. Unless you want to cut off the plastic part of the bonnet release though

    such a shame!!!

      Get a 10mm socket (just fits over the plastic thingy's on the back of the grill). Slide them over, push and you're done. Shouldn't take more then roughly 5 minutes to get the whole thing off

        You cut it off - this PDF from Milotec is the fitting instructions for a similar grille insert:

                I didn't order a grill, but I did order a drivers side seat box and the supa bright boot LED's
                They arrived today - pretty quick turnaround - gives me something to fiddle with tonight

                  what's the driver's side seat box? is that the under-seat storage?

                    Yeah - under the seat same as the passenger but I can't reach the passenger one comfortably, so I wanted one on the driver side

                      interesting, have you installed it yet?

                      i don't have storage on either side so i wonder if the passenger side can be fitted with the driver's side storage for LHD models...

                        The left/right boxes are a mirror image of each other
                        Both are available from this vendor (in two colours)

                        I've looked at it last night - a little tricky to fit
                        I'm probably going to pull the seat to make it easy
                        Have to check that I can connect plugs (seat belt warning and seat warmers) from the rear of the seat
                        because after the box is fitted you won't have any access under the seat from the front
