My only comment would be that you're very brave dismantling a lovely new car! Discovery 4 HSE

I am not sure i have ever purchased or received anything vaguely mechanical in my entire life that i have not dismantled/modified etc . one of my earliest memories is getting a scalextrix type racing set for xmas, and stripping down the cars and motors (removing the magnets, brushes and coils) to see how it worked. I got in serious trouble, and after reassembling and proving all was OK, I received a further scolding for being cocky Gerry ____________________________________________ Arrived>Santorini/Jet FFRR MY11 TDV8 Gone>Stornaway/Ebony MY09 RRS HST TDV8 Gone>Java black/Ebony MY07 RRS HSE TDV6 |

Just done this on my 2010MY and as Havank states the bolts are on the INSIDE Removing the outer plaster bumper skin will not help You need to take out the removable floor of the boot that houses the spare wheel, remove both smaller side sections and also the black plastic panels below them This will then allow you to access the 8 nuts which when removed will allow complete removal of the bumper Should I be posting a write up on this 2015 L405 SDV8 Autobiography, Indus Silver with Black Pack.

Still yet to do that but the electrics work perfectly just have to manually turn off the rear parking sensors when hitched up and reversing I think 3 hours in total is a fair assessment too - but be aware of the 21mm bolts underneath I needed an air gun to undo them Andy. 2015 L405 SDV8 Autobiography, Indus Silver with Black Pack.

That was a more "FULL ON" excercise than originally expected.
