Shower grille

I have the 2003 38FD Alpine and the grille that is mounted on the shower tub is getting flakey. Has anyone replaced there's? Before I tear something up is there a quick way to pull that. I have pulled and looked for screws and no luck. Has anybody been there on that heating grille.
Thanks

Yup--tried replacing it but nothing was available in my search, at least not at a "reasonable" price. So I pulled it out, stripped it, and repainted it. Yes--there are two screws--one on each end but they were really hidden inside the register. Like a typical residential register, there is an outside metal mounting bracket caulked into the shower enclosure. Believe I ended up carefully pulling the entire register and bracket out of the caulk, discovered the screws. I re-installed/caulked the bracket first, then used the screws to install the register. Will be at the coach today--let me reconfirm the location of the screws......

Guess I had a CRS attack--looked at the register today. Got the part about the inside bracket being caulked into the shower surround correct but forgot how the register was attached to the bracket--two rivets on each end. So had to gently but firmly pry the register, along with the bracket, away from the caulk that was holding it to the shower.

Thank you Old Scout. So I just need to pry it away from the shower. I pulled pretty hard and it didn't move so I stopped. I looked I didn't see any screws but I have missed them before if they are countersunk.
Hope you had a Great Holiday
