Thumbs up

This should be a sticky, or maybe added to the FAQ if it isn't there already.

Don't remove license plate lights from rear bumper....

Even my Bentley manual says to remove them! It's a total PITA to reinstall.

Just follow the wiring back to where it plugs in to the body harness and disconnect it there. Just unclip the plug and go.

A lot less messing around, and less chance of breaking something. Just remember to plug the harness together before buttoning up, or you'll get more practice taking the bumper off again to reconnect the wiring!

I've got to swap my damaged rear bumper tomorrow. Does anyone know whether the centre pins to the spoiler rivets are easily recoverable for re-use after being pushed in?
