Hey guys,
I want to remove my grill for a tick and I have nothing that will remove the two bolts (one of which pictured below). 
The three bolts at the bottom of the grill are easy because access it simple. But these two top ones are deep in there, and the bloody bolts are long. So... little help? What tool do I need?

you need a really deep socket to get those out, or a spanner through one of the holes to the side of it, you onyl get to turn a little at a time but it'll come.

yeah, i ended up breaking part of the thread off so i could get them off.
i bent the thread back and forward and it ended up snapping right where the nut is so it came off easy and would be easy to put it back on. I'm wanting to do it properly though when it comes time to remove my current grill.

i got the mesh from auto one. 30 bucks for 1.5 meters and i did the rest myself..chrome surround- $8 chrome door edge trim then i added another bit of chrome body trim around the bottom edge of the grill.
look at the pic in my sig to see what im on about.. now have a smaller ford badge on as well.that one on there was too big.
