How to remove the rear bumper on a Seat Leon? Let's go through the various steps. This operation is not too complex if done in order.

Using a screwdriver or battery-powered drill, unscrew the securing screws located at the top of the bumper (remove the rear lights), then remove the screws located at the sides of the wheel arch liners. Use a lever to detach the securing clips located at the bottom of the bumper (between the black plastic trim and the bumper).

Once the bumper is free from any screws or pins, remove it by hand and pull it away from the bodywork (disconnect any power cables).
