Remove the rear bumper from a Mazda 3? Follow these steps to detach the rear bumper. Open the boot, unscrew the securing bolts located at the back of the lights (after removing the inspection caps), and take them out after disconnecting the power connectors.

Unscrew the screws at the bottom of the bumper, then remove the screws on the sides of the wheel arch liners. Once the bumper is free from any screws or bolts, grip it with your hands and pull it away from the bodywork (disconnect any power cables).

Fit the new bumper with all the electrical connector connections.
