    I found the best way was to take the bumper off the car. This way gives you plenty of room to work. As for fitting it just clips into the existing holes that the sri one fits to you`ll also have to cut the two brackets that hang down from the bumper that the sri diffuser fits to..HTH

    Vehicle : Vauxhall Vectra Hatch

    Trim : SRI with added X-Pack

    Engine : 1.9 16v 150

    Year : 2006

    Mileage : Near 100K

    I changed mine with the bumper on the car (less work and not as time consuming)
    I pulled the single sri diffuser off (broke it as it had a little mark on it anyway)
    Pushed the vxr diffuser on and gave it a little tap with a rubber mallet wrapped in a soft cloth for those clips that needed a bit more force to seat them in the bumper.
    As for the things that hang down, i Fitted it properly and re-used the push clips and clicked them into the plastic brackets on the bumper bar.

    Its hard to go wrong
