hey guys, i'm taking the front bumper off tommorow so that i can have a look at whats wrong with my headlight washers, ii'm guessing i have to take the little covers off the washers first... after that i'm not really sure... any pointers would be appreciated.

also thinking of changing sidelight bulbs whilst i have the bumper off, that easy also?

step by step would be appreciated for taking the bumper off, thanks guys

well you have to take out all the screws which are in the wheel arch (both sides) and there is a screw under the indicators., there are screws on the top of the bumper. you will see them as you open the bonnet. also pop out the grill. and take off the light washer caps. then give a pull and it should come off. maybe best to dis connect the fog lamps.

hope this helps. :wink:

I used that guide and it was really helpful. Take care when removing the indicators, the tabs on the back are fairly fragile :wink:
