Top-up tank replacement

Post by bowenar57 »

So today I have discovered that the top-up tank (behind the number plate) is tfu.
I have ordered a replacement but on investigation I notice the screws are 'behind' the bumper.
Please tell me I don't have to remove the bumper to change the tank!
All hint and tips thankfully received.

From the engine compartment - at least to my recollection and the parts diagram.

If you can see the screws behind the bumper then use a screw driver bit.
