How to remove the rear bumper of the Mercedes GLC

Model: Mercedes Glc C253, X253, MK 1 - Years 2015-2022
Part: Rear bumper

In this video, we see how to remove the rear bumper of the Mercedes GLC: we start by removing the wheel arch trim, then we remove the clips that hold the wheel arch inside the fender; once these are removed and the wheel arch is loosened, we begin to remove the screws from the inside that hold the bumper to the body, then we separate the lower part of the bumper from the body itself. Now, from below, we remove the lower fixing screws to remove the protection located at the bottom, so that we can then remove the wheel arch and the trim on the other side. Now we open the rear trunk, where there is a large bolt, corresponding to the lock, that we need to remove; we release the hatch of the tailgate and unclip the clips. Using a wrench with an extension, we remove the four screws found under the plastic cover we removed, we remove the carpet cover to physically remove all the electrical connectors, and now from the outside we can lever to pull the bumper towards us.
