59 Avensis Estate Rear Bumper

[Boris662]

I have recently bought a 59 Avensis Estate and am intending to fit a towbar. Does anyone know how the rear bumper comes off, unfortunately the nice man at the Toyota franchise wouldn't let me have the information as I hadn't bought it from him and I wasn't getting him to fit it. I have fitted one to a 56 estate in the past as I had removal instructions and diagrams. I have no such thing for the 59 estate. Many thanks.

On the saloon there is a main bolt at each side, under colour coded plastic caps, at the side of the boot opening. Then there is a clip where the bumper meets the wheel arch, at the top. Then there are about 8 clips underneath securing it to various sections. There are also clips that the bumper slides into around the lights etc. I would think the tourer to be a similar set up. I found the info on the toyota tech site under the heading for fitting parking sensors. Have a look you might be lucky.
