Great video! I do have a few quick tips. If you remove the tail light that hard to remove clip you can touch it. So I removed with a screwdriver and put it back on just by hand. Also I dangled my tailgate by the cables which also made some clips very easy to access. Just thought I toss this info out. My second bumper cap only took me 5 min to do after I learned these tricks. Good luck 😎😎

What a great tip! Appreciate the input.

At what point was just removing the friggin bumper step cover such a hassle? Nah, lets dismantle everything else surrounding the bumper! You might as well take the truck bed off so you can get easier access 🤣🤣

Thanks you! It was an important aspect of this video as some of the tabs and clips are hidden. This way you do not need to remove the entire bumper.

It is way easier to remove the bumper bolts, except two, and let the bumper pivot downward. It allows plenty of access to the two trim clips and the metal retainer that are behind the bumper.
