18 F3L: issues removing the frunk?!?

[acdcking12]

Trying to remove the frunk and running into issues. It looks like the top grey piece covering the computer connection, is over the top of the frunk piece where the lock goes in. So I do not see how to get the frunk out without breaking the greay piece..advice?

Pull up on the piece. It removes. Are you taking off the whole frunk, or, the frunk bucket? The bucket comes out with 4 pushpins. Remove the panel, bucket lifts out. Call me if you need help. Joe

The gray piece just lifts out. Just pull up on the back corners and up it comes.

There are raised panels on each end. Insert finger from the front and lift. Get some plumbers grease and put on the pins to make it easier to do next time. Lifting from the rear of the panel will just have it hitting the upper cowl/headlight and it won't come out (on the F3 at least).

I use a silicone grease, like spark plug boot grease, on all my PITA sticky rubber grommets on vehicles and my toys.
