See if this will help for those that want to install themselves...It's a rear ladder pdf file, but it explains how to remove the bumper cover which will give access to the tow hooks.

Hmm just watched the powerfuluk rear mud flap video last night - looks like its gonna be a bit a frab taking the bumper off for me... after all my bravado elsewhere, I might speak to the dealers to have them do it for when it comes into them for Explorer Pack fitment...

Started today with my mod of easy accesibe front tow hook / loop.
First sanding, masking, primer. Click image to enlarge 3 layers rescue orange spraypaint, 2 layers clear gloss Click image to enlarge Black spray for the 2 bolts Click image to enlarge Cutting cardboard & measuring Click image to enlarge Jigsaw with fine metal blade Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Sanding the edges and adding a fine Rubber epdm U profel at the inside ( to short at the moment) Click image to enlarge Result Click image to enlarge I will reinforce the flat side under and close it behind later. Make also the oval maybe a little higher So this took me 2 hrs and I think it looks neat as tempory solution before installing heavy duty undershield protection. No Mud flaps for my 90.! ----------------------------------------- P300 S MY21 on air, adv.+ offroad pack, DRL+fog, Dinamica Suedecloth + Ebony headliner/Cross Beam- Many Mods..

Dealer fitted my rear ones while doing the towbar. I supplied them. I have just fitted the new front ally plate myself, no bumper removal!

Black or Orange hoops from Land Rover are £34.66 each
Labour time to replace the rear bumper is 1.6 hours. Once the bumper is off its only 4 bolts for each hoop |
