Bumper off. Saves a lot of effort, frustration and scars on your hands.
remove the air box
If yours is prefacelift, no need for bumper removal. Remove the cover off the back of the h/light for mainbeam/sidelights, reach inside and grab the sidelight bulb holder, keeping in mind it's lower down than the mainbeam bulb. You'll probably touch the wiring first, follow that to the bulb holder. I find it helps to simultaneously lean down and have your eye line level with the sidelight from the front of the h/lamp, that way you can sense when your hand is level with your eye and therefore at the right place. The bulb holder just pulls out.
be hard to remove bumper wouldnt it? Dont really want to take things apart just incase I cant put it back on. cheers
4 screws off the grille, lift off. Two clips off top of bumper. 2 screws off inner arches on each side. Pull out sides, bumper drops. 3 bolts per light, and off it comes.
On the prefacelift I've converted my wife's Signum to HID bulbs/ballasts all without taking the bumper off.
