My 97 service cd says:

"1. Remove radiator air deflector (8327). Refer to (Section 01-02).
2. Disconnect wiring harness to front fog lamps (15200).
3. From behind front bumper cover (17D957) remove 3 screws on Contour or 1 screww on Mystique retaining each fog lamp to front bumper cover and remove lamp."

Section 01-02:
"1. Remove (9) screws retaining radiator air deflector (8327) to radiator support (16138) and front fender splash shield (16102).
2. Disengage radiator air deflector from front bumper cover (17D957) and remove radiator air deflector fron vehicle."

HTH. I don't know if 96 and 97 were the same and I haven't tried this myself yet.
