Can any one tell me how to remove the rear bumper so that I can fit new parking sensors that have failed? Thanks, Steve

With your help from this great forum I managed easily to remove my rear bumper and change 3 of the parking sensors that had gone faulty.
Cost £32.00 for 3 sensors from e-bay
£10.00 to have them sprayed silver.
Total £42.00
Bmw wanted £120 plus vat per sensor that's £425 and that's without fitting.
What a rip off.
