Removing The Front Bar Of A R33

[Bunta]

Ok Guys I am having a problem with removing the M spec front bar from my S1 r33gtst. I have removed the bolts attaching the bar to the side skirts I have removed the 3 screws under the grill and I have unattached the bar from the lining inside the guards. And unplugged the indicators. The bar still seems to be attached near the headlight area. When I look up under the headlights there is fairly large white square clip. I can’t move this but. Does this mean I need to remove the headlights to get the front bar off? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I can’t take it any more this bar needs to come off! Thanks guys…also does anyone know of a book that has this type of stuff in it. I got the tech manual but it is more for mechanics than a backyard tinkerer like me. Thanks heaps guys!

Hey mate, i have done this anumerous times now the first time is definately the hardest the best thing to do is get a long skinney flat hear screwdriver and gently pry the clip up while pulling on the front bar, easier if you get someone to give u a hand to hold the bar, do this on both sides and the bar should come off if you have all the bolts un done.

Thank you so much, will give it another go this weekend!

the bar is attached to the headlight make sure you undo them bolts, there is 2 bolts each side

Is it eaiser just to unbolt the reo (2 bolds either side), and the bolts either side near the guards. The whole lot comes away.

I have not done it but I have recently had a new bar fitted and the group who did it took the whole lot off then unbolted the bar from the reo.

Once you undo all the screws, there are 2 clips holding the bar under headights, just apply some force and it will come off
