Here is a good link. Its a video for installing raptor style lights in the grill. The steps are the same for all types of 2015+ F150 grilles so this should help you. It has all the steps for removing the grill just do it in reverse when you are putting it back on


I changed grilles and installed the raptor style lights like in the video took a little over an hour.

Just a heads up about the above video, the truck in it does not have the OEM fender flares my FX4 did. It was a great help otherwise. I found that to remove the headlight trim completely, I would have had to also remove the fender flares. I don't know if anybody else has been able to remove the fender flares easily, as it appears the top of them is held on with very tough double sided tape. I ended up leaving the two screws in the fender wells in place and I was able to pull the headlight trim out far enough to access the lower grille bolt. The lower two push fasteners for the rubber strips I accessed from above between the headlight housing and the grille using a long screwdriver to pry and another one inside to help push them out. YMMV ;-)
