Removing the Bumper

Does anyone know of any descriptive videos/tutorials on how to remove the front bumper? I just bought some new Depo Headlights and want to swap them out with the factory ones in my car.

When I removed my bumper to do a headlight swap I used this link.

An alternative and far less labor intensive is have someone post the factory bumper removal document for your MY car which is -----AR8820P2000FA--- a part of the procedure is a second person to help with final step in the removal!!

Another pair of hands will be a great benefit. It's a bit fiddly

I think Adobe Reader is equipped with a print driver now. You can check by
viewing your print driver library and looking for "doPDF". It effectively redirects
your printout to a virtual printer which creates a PDF. This is what I'm using
at work via Adobe Reader. At home, I have Acrobat so it has more flexibility
in creating PDFs via different means.

Good luck a_gulbs!!! Plutoe, as raymond g- said, I have acrobat so when you go to print, create a PDF is an option and bam! Very helpful when saving web receipts and so on, don't have to actually print it out.
