Question Front bumper removal - 00MY

Is this easy??

I need to replace both fog lamp brackets and it appears that this is a bumper off job.

Any advice?

Cheers

Kev

I took my new age one off last weekend, Not sure if the process is anywhere near similar, but I had to remove the grill, then the lights and then undo 9 or so clips around the top endge of the bumper and 3 or so under, its not a hard task, but i'd recomend getting some replacement clips in as you will brake some!!

You don't need to remove the bumper to take off the fog lamp brackets.

Obviously remove the fog lamps first, then use a flat blade screw driver and where the tabs from the brackets are visible, push them upwards and then backwards, and they will fall out.

New ones in, is just the reverse. Once the bolts from the fog lamps are back in, it stops them falling out.

Excellent - Cheers. I'll have another look once the snow passes.
