Your Colorado modifications look great! I love the red letters.They're awesome and should've come that way, imo. Damn, now I might have to get one simply to do that. :) And the light bar is perfect for those times I may find myself in some remote location out in the desert here. Not that it’s routine mind you, but rather just in case. And your tutorial was top notch. It’s honestly one of the best I’ve seen in some time since you covered everything from what I can tell. So if you ever find yourself out here with it let me know.

I just installed my bison grill today and because of this video - and only because of this video - it was fairly easy. The only tricky thing were the 3 7mm bolts in the wheel well that I found were easier to remove by just holding the 7mm socket in my hand and twisting it rather than trying to jam a ratchet in that tiny space. Fortunately they weren’t installed too tight at the factory and pretty easy to get off. I made a little instruction sheet from this video and put each set of bolts or screws by each step so it was simple to reinstall. This is the best video out there on this and the new grill looks phenomenal. Took me about 2 hours and was doing it myself, didn’t take the wheels off, and didn’t jack up the truck. I just turned the wheels to each side as far as they could go to access some of the wheel well screws. Having a 10 inch socket extension is absolutely critical for the two bolts in the middle of the grill.

Hey man! I just finished this whole job and I just wanted to thank you for the awesome video! The instructions were outstanding, and your video close-ups made things very clear. It took me over half the day, but I'm done, and it looks amazing. I had to use an aftermarket Bison Grill because nobody has the OEM ones any more, but it turned out great. I'd just like to point out one thing that would be super helpful. I couldn't figure out how you got the wire from the light bar through the little hole in the vent because of the big connector. Since you de-pinned one of the connections, I thought maybe you took that screw on connection apart too. I tried and almost broke it! I don't think that part is supposed to come apart! Haha. I ended up taking the crash bar off again so that I could get the fat connector behind the vent. Everything was gravy after that. Okay, not quite everything. There's a little hole on the firewall grommet and I was like "oh cool, I can just use this!", but it's some sort of nipple or something, and I pushed it through to the inside. When I realized my mistake I went back and pushed it through the ridge like you said. It wasn't easy, but I got it through. The finished product looks amazing! I definitely would not have had the confidence to do this without your video. Thank you so much! Oh, just so you know, I bought the stuff from your links back in December, so hopefully you got some Amazon kick-back for that. You're the best and thanks again! Truly awesome videos you're making.

Beautiful! Good job on the install. I'm really thinking about that light bar. Since my truck is the same color, I know exactly how it's going to look! I still like the old grill with the bowtie so I'm sticking with that for now. I got an AVS stick-on bug deflector and it made the truck look fantastic. Plus it deflects bugs. Who woulda thunk it. I just got new black rims with wider spokes so painting the brake calipers is now priority. Do a vid on that please!

HorsePower Obsessed I understand that. When I very first put mine in I wasn’t sure either. But after a day I decided I really like it. I decided that you buy a truck with a look in mind. And that as soon as you let yourself be a little flexible then it’ll change your mind. The view is way better with the spotting mirror. Then there are the lighting options. I did every option except switchback. Upper and lower heated, high power reverse spot with cargo light tie in. I did black and not painted and am happy with that. My truck is red also and I figure the back goes with my red and black theme as well. I have the baby max and love it. 2017 with 26,000 miles. Has a color match leer canopy. I took the faring (air dam) off the other day. What a significant improvement in look. Next is a leveling kit.

Did it feel like they were supporting the lower part of the bumper at all? Cutting them off had no negative side-effects? I'm wondering if sanding it down afterwards would make it look better or worse. Anyways, now I have to find a Bison Grille, which doesn't seem to be sold online anymore. Thanks for the video!

There is definitely not any glue. They are tight on there but 2 small screwdrivers will do it. It took me about an hour and 1000% focus to get it done, but once you start getting 2 or 3 of them off they all get easier.

@@HorsePowerObsessed thanks. got it figured out before you replied with sheer determination. Ended up having to pretty much destroy the two clips in the middle. They were too small for my screwdrivers. What I did: Start at one side. Once those two larger clips are freed, slide in a wooden wedge. Move down the bottom, making sure the wedge stays in place and push the wedge in further (keeping it at the side of grill) to keep pressure. Once halfway across, use another wedge and start working from the opposite side. Then free the upper clips. I hope this helps others, as I see a lot of questions regarding this. Thanks
