The bumper is really easy though man...I am 16 and did it with no problems. SUBARU TECNICA INTERNATIONAL

I think there are 8 connectors on the bottom to... but these are all obvious to find - work on the underplastics first and then work on the above 7 mentioned screws if this is your first time and you are not totaly confident - print out the above photos (or draw a picture) and when you take the screws off, put them onto of the pictures in the locations that you removed them from... this will make putting things back together so much easier Last edited by isaac; Jul 12, 2003 4:39pm.

Karrion28 Senior Member 2000 Toyota Celica GT Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 505 Tampa FL	I thought the other thread was about browneyedchikk having problems removing the right side marker light ("bumper light"), and this thread is about browneyedchikk having problems on removing the front bumper in order to get to the side marker light, and VSGTS mentioned that probably a more convenient way to get to the side marker light is that you could take off the headlight, and my post was to inform brawneyedchikk that in order to take off the headlight you would need to take off the front bumper anyways.
