You shouldn't have to remove the bumper, but the housing change is a bit tight. Get mod book from B&N or Borders.

it is not on his site

here i go.........................

get a 12mm socket and 2 extension wands, and a srewdriver, stubby and long screwdriver

there are 1 screw on each side that hold the lender liner to the bumper towards the bottom some have it towards the top, then there should be a hole on the inside of the lower grill next to the inside part of the turn signal, take a screw driver and unscrew this screw

pop out the turn signals, look inside and up to your top left inside if you are on the driver side there is a bolt, use the 2 wands and the 12mm socket and undo this bolt, then go to the inside of the grill on the other side of that screw there is another 12mm bolt, it will be on the other side of the plate next to the first bolt, take off the other one, repeat to the other side

when this is down it will be loose, lift up and pull away, this is the easiest part, when you put it back on it will be a little tricky to align it but put it the same way you got it off

presto your bumper is off







hope this helps

How do you take off those pins under your headlight? cause it seems you can't take off the bumper without those off -_-'' kinda confused -_-''

You don't need to take out the black "bolt" things under the lights OR the ones on the very top of the bumper Those are not holding the bumper on.
