Hi guys,

I am trying to replace the ambient temp sensor on my 2009 5. I can see it plainly, but I can't seem to figure out how in the world to get to it easily without removing the whole bumper, which consequently I don't want to do. Has anybody replaced this and if so how did you access it?

Thanks in advance!
 
Removing the undercover doesn't seem to help much, as it does give you some access but not enough to get both arms up in there. I thought there might be some "trick" to get the grill out, which would give you perfect access to the sensor.
