How do you remove the rear bumper of the Volkswagen Polo?

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Rear bumper

In order to remove the rear bumper of the Volkswagen Polo, you need to remove the rear lights from their housing: to do this, you will need to open the tailgate and remove the inner trim panel of the trunk corresponding to the light. Under this panel there will be a bolt to remove to free the headlight from its seat, disconnecting the connector. Once the headlights are removed, you can proceed by loosening the screws that fix the bumper from its lower part and from inside the wheel arches: when the old bumper is removed, you can insert the new one and check that everything is working.
