Pissing hell this took me forever!
Finally got it done.
Have changed my no-line 11 slat as standard on my ED to the M-Sport/Sportline 8 slat with the chrome surround still - the full black one is the m-performance one right? I wanted to keep the silver surround - I think all black wouldn't have fit with the ED bumper.
Anyway;
Tried to take the approach of un-clipping through the existing slats, tried my man hands, tried some tools, a crocheting hook all to no avail, I managed to get to them just with a bit of brute force but the clips would just not shift!
Have attached a close up of the centre top clip so you can see my issues, it has almost wing like things.
Uploaded some pics of the finished article in a thread in the UK forums;
