Title: Rear Bumper Removal (Saloon)
Post by dexix on Apr 14^th, 2007, 1:53am

Hi Guys, I need to remove my bumper, do some work on it and get it back on asap as the wife is always needing the car so could anyone tell me where all the screw/bolts are located (eg. do I have to take the inner wheel linings off etc) any help so I can do this quickly would be appreciated.

The torx bolts can be a cow to remove if they have (probably) rusted. ;)

I managed to break two (2) torx bits doing this :-[ ::)

Just the 4 bolts underneath and the fixing on either side as I remember ;)

Go and buy yourself some hexagonal bolts to replace the torx ones, it will be easier next time.... :-/
