How to remove Ampeg pf410hlf grill?

I hate having to pry grills off of my Ampeg cabinets. For my 410HE cabinets, I went out and purchased about 4 inches of 3/4" wide or so braided strap from a fabric store, folded it in half, and stapled it to the bottom center of the grill (using a staple gun, not a stapler). That way I have a tab that I can pull on. It makes it much easier to get them off.
 
As someone who has played Ampeg stuff for a very long time, trust me...it was much worse before they went to that industrial velcro. Grills used to just fall out for no apparent reason with those plastic tabs they used to use.
