    Thanks for taking the time to record all steps both to remove and replace the bumper. Really made the job so much easier.

    Thanks brother, this video was a great help for fixing a collision with a snow mound that busted a bracket and pushed the bumper out of its seating. Its definitely a lot easier by the looks of it when there aren't icicles and snow all over the undercarriage.

    Thanks for taking the time for this job! I really don't understand the 4 thumbs down, this was a lot of work, and a great, detailed video. I was trying to replace the oil filter and was surprised at the number of bolts to remove to get to the filter. I left the parts off after the last oil change so I guess i will have to see if I loose fuel economy. Thank you again.

    Yes! Thank you!. My bumper was hit by a semi tread on the interstate and you just saved me a lot of money. I can totally do this myself now, like I usually do on cars I've owned.

      Mine is damaged a lot more than that, needs bumper cover, at least one fender, the hood, windshield and the steering wheel. Not sure if mine is worth repairing...

    One of the things that pisses me off about my Focus, that my 09 Rav4 Limited doesn't do is how much b.s. you have to do. I need to change the horn on my Focus. Apparently Ford felt this much effort made more sense than mounting it on top. How long does all this take start to finish including putting it back, an hour?

    • @happywrenching
      @happywrenching  10 лет назад +1

      Not going to hurt anything if you run without it. It is there to reduce noise, increase gas mileage a little bit, and offer protection from water and small debris. To get it replaced you will have to go to through the Ford dealer.

    • @Sh4neT
      @Sh4neT 4 года назад

      No bumper removal necessary. Use a pry tool to pop off the passenger side black triangle grille on the bumper. Horn assembly is right under there and just held in by a connector and a single bolt.

      Hey, you can buy window tint film to cover the chrome strips. Just apply the film and then trim it to fit.

    • @jaredshelton4718
      @jaredshelton4718 7 лет назад

      If your horn stopped working, it's probably a loose connection but you have to take off the entire front bumper to even get to it.

      No need to take off the bumper. Take off the two under-body covers and you will have access to the fog light.
