The instructions in this guide will allow you to remove and replace the rear bumper of a Volkswagen Tiguan. First, open the tailgate of the boot and start by removing the rear lights by unscrewing the screws and disconnecting the stop light connector; then unscrew the fixing screws located on both sides of the rear wheel arches, unscrewing the lower screws to gently detach the bumper from the sides until it is completely removed, as shown in the video.

At this point, replace it by securing it properly to the bodywork.
