Bumper Removal
Today I received the Oracle dual halos and I am having the hardest time taking off the front bumper. I am following the directions in AAC's video but it seems like there is something still connected from the bumper to the fender, or something else in that area.
I pulled 3 10mm bolts from the fender area, which 1 was a real pain and barely could get it off as it was so far up and my socket had barely any room to move. But I did get it. Are their possibly other 10mm bolts in the area that aren't connected to the bumper/fender? It looks like there is also like a 6mm (or about) bolt connected from the turn signal housing area to the bumper. I didn't try to take that out yet but maybe it is another that needs to be taken out. Does anyone have any photos of the bolts inside? |

There is a 10mm on the back side of the marker light inside the fender and a 7mm pointed north under marker, close to the edge of fender.
Don't forget to unplug the fog lights. I am assuming you got the six clips up to on the nose edge in eng. bay and the two 10mm, one one each side of the top corners in bay, and the two 10mm underneath nose. Sad, I am able to do this in my sleep, having removed sooooo many time now.
