    Pete I deleted all my pix on how about a week ago...darn..

    Easier if you have the Parts book.

    1. Undo bottom panels..

    2. Undo panel in front wheel wells.

    3. disconnect a lamps

    4. In the front wheel well there is a bolt that adjusts back&forth and up&down. It's located about where the bumper meets the hood on the side of the car. If you're sitting at the front wheel, look forward and you'll see it. It's about 2" inboard.

    5. Now, here's where to be careful. Open trunk and carefully pull back the carpet in the nose of the car. Feel in the center and you will find 2 large nuts. (parts book shows 1, but there are 2 of them about 6" apart). Unscrew the nuts. About 18mm or so in size.

    Pull bumper out forward. Takes about 30 minutes. When removing front trunk liner be careful not to bend or break. Losen side panel helps. I'll look in my Old computer...pix still may be on that hard drive.

    I have the parts book and will use your steps as a guide. Thanks again!

    Did you take the Ford Taurus out today?
