If you search, as I just did, there are literally tons of threads asking the same question or threads detailing how to remove it specifically or in conjunction with another part or install. Use that feature and you will find what you are looking for without creating a new duplicate thread.

Did mine a few weeks back. More to do than on a chevy. Remove front few screws from wheel well fender trim (black piece), remove screws from top bumper trim piece which are right in front of front wheels and attach it to fender (i think there were 3 on each side). The bumper trim piece then pops off but you need to be under the truck to reach up and release the tabs. You can then remove 4 lower screws that hold bottom of grille in place. Then pull out plastic retainers from radiator top trim piece and remove screws that hold top of grille in place (4 I think).

This video shows how, you just have to adjust for the part(s) that need removed. It only takes a few seconds in most cases.

Your local dealer might have a kind individual to print you the GM service procedures on how to remove it.

That's why a truck ain't a truck unless it has tow hooks!

Should be a similar process for the 2016

I used nylon body tools on the inside clips and it worked really well

Amazon had a custom removal tool for about $5......movable rubber pivot works like a charm in tight places like wheel wells and trunks.....one push and perfect removal with no damage to retainer head or splines. Can't afford to bouger one......Chevy charges $4 a piece for these cheap fasteners (or you can buy more than a hundred from Amazon for less than $20). What a markup!

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
