Hi, the Rear Chrome Bumper Strip doesn't have separate clips, they are part of the Strip itself.....

Thanks Robbie, much appreciated. Do you know by any chance how much slack wire there is for the Reverse Sensors? This is my concern really as I don't want to damage them, or the connections.

Thanks again, Bill.

Hi MangoMan
I have just changed my rear centre trim. I did not remove bumper ! Have a good look at your new trim so that you can see how the clips work.
Firstly using a medium size ordinary screwdriver I gently levered the centre trim away from the bumper starting at one end. as I got to each clip I carefully twisted the strip back and forth until the clip popped out. Carry on along the whole length using twisting method. The whole trim came away without causing any damage to bumper, but obviously care has to be taken. The new trim will slot in no problem. Whole job took 15 mins. looks great, but take care.

couldnt answer that question as mine was not fitted with sensors although i would have thought its possible to unclip them before taking the bumper away
