Not those kind of clips. They're little tabs. I used 2 flathead screwdrivers to get mine out. Just be careful not to drop them into the front of the engine bay and keep count of how many you're using.

Amen to that. I lost 3 screw-drivers when swapping out my grill.

No I mean screwdrivers. It's because you have to push in the clips with a flathead screw drivers, and when you pop out the grill, the screwdrivers fall. It's very easy to get the grill out once you figure out how it works.
