Removing front bumper help

[Jamesrowe]

Hey all,

I've found and followed a few guides on how to remove the front bumper. All was going well until it come to the pulling part. The headlights seemed to be in the way, and the bumper just wouldn't go round the outside like the guides were saying. How would i go about this? Cheers in advance for any comments.

You undo the nuts on the back of the guides and remove them with the bumper.

Cheers for the reply! You on abot the guides that makes the bumper slide off (if that makes sense)? Will this give you enough room to get the bumper past the lights?

you will need to basically pull the sides of the bumper outwards as you pull the bumper forwards to clear the headlights.
You need to undo the bolts holding the sides of the bumper behind the headlights. I think from memory you need to undo the arch liners to gain access.
