Anyone know where to find instructions on how to remove the rear bumper on a Cabrio. I have remover and changed them on COOPER/COOPER S's. But the boot lid on the cabrio is making me think its different.
Any information would be great.
Thanks.

In case the link in previous post doesnt work!! I recently removed my bumper on my 06 to change parking sensors:) If memory serves me correctly you need to remove one plastic screw popper thingy in each wheel arch liner (supposed to remove wheel to gain acess) Next prise back outer wheel arch trim there is a screw underneath to remove. Open boot lid and there are two more screws on top panel, there are also 2 plastic inner hinge covers which you slide inwards to remove. You need to remove the plastc floor panel underneath bumper (3 screws) to gain access to the cental 'L' shaped bracket which contains a bolt that you need to remove, whilst your there unplug the fog light lead. When you done that wiggle the bumper free make sure you remove electrical connectors to all 4 parking sensors!
If I ve missed anything I apologise was a few weeks ago :redface:
hope this helps :D
