Expert Reply:
Yes, you will have to cut holes in your grille to make the baseplate extend out. My contact at Blue Ox told me that the way this is to be done is to hold the grille up to the area where the baseplates attach and mark the dimensions on the grille with a washable white paint and cut out from there.
You will want to start off small and tweak from there so you do not over-cut.
Blue Ox does not have a measurement specific diagram at this time.
