Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Do I need to remove the bumper?

Do I need to remove the bumper if I want to take out this part?

it would be easier if you did, yes...

^^^ditto...i take mine off that jus to change the fog bulbs hahaha

ok that is a little extra work on your part monkey

I will say no. Only because I witnessed first hand a replacement of the fog light bulbs on my car. This also included if I wanted to replace the whole fog lights. It was easy and I wish I had the tools. Cost me a whole $10. They would have charged $75 for new fog lights and a switch up to the dash. It looks so easy. I can't say how they did it (protected information and I don't have pics), just go from under your Celica and figure it out.

no because you already got those parts sitting on that counter

NO you don't have to remove the bumper. i did it easily with a ratchet. there are three 10mm bolts... if you connected them they would make a Y. just go through the stock fog light holes for the first one... second one you can reach from under the car with an extension on the ratchet... and third is a little tough... easy if you have an adjustable wrench... but yeah... i had to remove the trd fog light covers to do TONY's $20 fog light install... a lot less work not having to remove the bumper IMO...

i was havin a hard time getting my hand in there and had a VERY hard time locking the bulbs in so i jus take the whole bumper off to make it easier..hahaha

i think that is another picture...i think tony's or something

I think that was an attempt at sarcasm...

^^ ahhh...i see

just take off the front bumper...it makes things a lot easier

Me too. WAY easier than fumbling around for an hour. I'm going to take it off the next time I have to change the lowbeams, instead of pissing around with those damn clips.
