It takes a lot of work! My wife (who has smaller hands than I) helped me with mine. If you are easily able to get the top 3, maybe try getting the lower ones first and then doing the top?

Good Luck!

the bottom ones are actually easy, it is probably the side ones that are holding you up. Have you removed the weather strip and the 5 torx screws holding the top of the bottom cover on? Once the side top and side tabs are released the bottom ones slide out pretty easy. There are good DIY's here for grille removal....
