How to remove rear bumper on 2001 CLK430 ???
Hello,
Does anyone have instructions on how to remove the rear bumper on a 2001 CLK430 ? Its the standard one and NOT the amg one.
Im trying to install a reverse parking sensor kit and cant figure out how to get it off
Thanks

I copy and pasted this from my friend vipclk320 from this forum !!He suggested the following :
from the outside near your tire one bolt on each side
from the inside behinde the side carpets two bolts on each side
from the inside lift the carpet on the body below the black plastic piece you will find 3 knots with washers attahed to them one is in the center below your lock latch and one on each side of it.
take all those off and then slide the bumper back, dont yank it up ir down just slide it back because there is a sliding bracket onn each side of the bumper and then there will be a antenna wire on the driver side that you will have to disconnect and thats it.
