Great photo's.
I was able to do it without breaking anything. I guess my fingers are too big to reach around to all three clips. I was only able to reach around to the top clip. After loosing that section I was able to wiggle, coax, beg and finally work the grill loose all of the way around and finally pull it out. None of the plastic clips broke.
Two of the metal clips actually came out with the plastic tabs. I simply removed the metal clips and reattached them.
Removing the snorkle was actually the easiest part.
I had to take care to insure that all of the clips were aligned and reattached properly.
I can't wait to take it out tomorrow (if the sun is out)!

I haven't done any mods to my 986 yet but reading this I think I might try this one. Sounds pretty easy. Is the snorkel only on USA versions?
