Was looking into R/R the front bumper for the first time on my 991.2 Carrera S, and went to see if I had the headlight removal tool in my kit. It was not there (bought the car used).

Then found out the 991.2 is different than the 991.1. No tool required. Has anyone produced a vid for the 991.2 for bumper removal? UTube search only came up with 991.1 and older. Can the headlights now be left in when removing the bumper?

Not a video, but here's my sequence. No special headlight tool, just a wrench. But the bumper cover has to come off to remove the headlight.

On 991.2 the headlights stay in when removing the bumper, they are bolted in from the bottom, not quick release like the dot 1.

Excellent photos and write up. Very different than the 991.1 procedures so I am glad I asked before attempting mine. I want to pull the center grill cover and the two variable vane units because the black plastic has gotten grungy looking, and your photos of the back of the bumper are very instructive.
