Disassembly and reassembly of the bumper on the Saab 900 DIY

Model: Saab 900 MK 2 - Years 1993-1998
Part: Front bumper

The procedure involves the removal of the bumper from the Saab 900 with the vehicle secured and the ignition off. It starts by identifying the visible fastening points on the lower edge and along the wheel arches. Then, the accessible bolts from the outside are loosened, and if applicable, those located under the hood or behind the grille. Once the side fasteners are freed, the bumper is carefully supported to avoid stress on the plastics; before removing the component, the connectors for any connected devices (license plate lights, fog lights, or sensors, if present) are disconnected. With the wiring detached, the bumper is pulled off evenly along the vehicle's axis, ensuring that the clips and side brackets do not resist. For reassembly, the piece is repositioned in its housing, the guides are correctly engaged, and the edges are realigned. Then, the connectors are reconnected, and screws and bolts are replaced with uniform tightening, starting from the central points and moving to the sides. Finally, the junction line with the fenders and grille is checked, the connected lighting is verified, and a final visual inspection of the assembly stability is performed.
