Default Cayenne 955 Hood Crest

OK, so how do I get to the 2 speed nuts on the back of the hood crest to change it!

TIA

Use an 8mm socket.

How do I get to the back of the badge? I tried an 8mm wobble socket, thats somewhere inside the front PU now, you just cant get to the 2 nuts! Do you take the front upper latch area cover off?

Its a turbo so may be a bigger grille in the front PU than the S cars

Dont tell me its a PU off job?

O.K., we won't tell you....but it is.
Front apron must be removed on the S or V6. With the Turbo, you may be able to access it via the front grille.

I loosen the top of the cover and was able to get my hands in to change mine. Wasn't that hard to do but it will leave a mark on your arms.

I loosened all the top screws and could pull the PU off about an inch, still cant get my sausage hands in there! How much did you loosen yours?

I pulled all the screws out. It opened enough for me, tight yes but I was determined.
