believe it or not it will be faster to just take the bumper off then to figure out another way. dont break the mounts. its so easy to get the bumper off. its really a joke. 4 bolts hold the whole front end on.

well you have to pry them apart 1st...then unscrew the chrome housing and be sure to pop out the plastic corner lenses too!!

good luck!

Somewhere out there will be one badass camry.

Joking aside, it isn't a bad idea to get practice. Mess up and those headlights will cost ya. Good luck.
