I'm a newbie
Hi. I’m looking to replace a cracked rear bumper corner on my Burstner. Burstner have sent the replacement part but I can’t find anyone to fit it, so I’m thinking of doing it myself. Has anyone done it and can provide advice?

Looks like the black parts are where it attaches. Taking the old one off should show how it is secured. My Weinsburg one was heat welded, I used Sikaflex, still on 3 years later.
 
Are those 3 metal points threaded?
 
I think Ive worked out how to do it. 1. Remove light cluster. 2. access top set of bolts next to that. 3. Attack the lower bolts from the underside using a right angled screwdriver. However I am really struggling to remove the light cluster. Burstner's instructions are pretty vague - Insert a 'flat tool' into the notch and carefully level off the housing. Mine appears to be stuck fast and Im concerned that if I put too much pressure on it, the cluster will break. Any thoughts?

Id price that cluster first, that will tell you how much grunt you can use.
They all look prety but a nightmare to work on.
Is there no hidden bolts screws from behind?
