Default How to remove front bumper?

I've scoured the internet best I can to find postings on how to do this.

It seems like maybe it is best handled by the dealership???

I am trying to install these clear front turn signals:



But im being told you need to have the front bumper removed to get to them.

Any help?

I may be wrong, but I don't think you have to remove the bumper. I think you just need to remove the grille. From what I've been reading Dennis does it regularly...just a few bolts and it's off. If you do have to remove the bumper it's no big deal. I removed mine when I installed the factory off-road lights.

Great! Thank you very much.

Do you know if there has been any documentation on how to do this? I've tried once and ended up realizing I was probably going to destroy something in the process.

I appreciate anyone's help!

Dennis brings the grill to bed with him
But that all you should have to do to install those lights

Remove these two 10mm bolts from through the front of the grille.



Now remove these two 10mm boltsfrom eithe side of the radiator cap (they point towards the rear)



Then these last two nuts on the far left and right of the top of the grille...Then justtug slightly on either end and the grille will pop off..

Dennis, does it help to have the grill guard off or is there enough room to work while leaving the guard attached? I wanna gain access to the turn lights so I can install my strobe package in there but am hesitant if I have to take the grille gaurd and everything else off too. (just too much work)

Sorry I really can't answer that with any certainty..But just guessing, I would say the gaurd should come off first..
