Help needed

scorpio stu · 4th April 2012, 05:40

Is there anyone in the Essex/Buckhurst Hill area that would be willing to help take the rear bumper off to fix the reversing sensors. I can do bits n bobs but not confident trying to get it off. If anyone is willing to help I would supply tea/coffee/fags and biscuits.
I'm fed up of reversing into the garage door :-)

Cheers

Hi Stu, Sorry mate your a bit to far for me to help but taking off the rear bumper is quite an easy job. Although i have only done it 3 times the first time was scarey when it came to pulling out the sides from the clips, just give it a good sharp pull

There is an how to on bumper removal and you will be surprised how easy it is

Hi stu,

Im only down the road but am away for the long weekend (from tonight).

If its clipped the same as the front hen a good sharp pull is needed. A word of caution, ensure you use some low-tac tape on the wings because if you are doing it alone you will hqve to do one side at a time and scratching the wing is a possibility.
