Tow Loops Installed
Preparation - wanted to give myself a little extra crawling space.
Disassembly - thanks to Simon at PowerUK and for the contributions on this site. The pillow was there incase I wanted to take a nap.
Reassembly - I think having two people to refit the bumper would have been a dream. I simply leveraged one of my alternate personalities.
I ordered the checker plate tow loop surrounds. They didn't really fit that well. I needed to us the heat gun to encourage them to conform to the shape of the bumper and stick. I don't think I'd be surprised to find them fallen off in the future.
Overall love the outcome. It's about 1 1/2 hour job first time through. Quicker once you've been through it. Took me about 2 hours as I rounded out a screw and had to fix that.

First upgrade done, cherry popped. Super fast delivery from Simon and the gang, and really impressed in the quality of the product:
Super easy to put together the plinth and the lights. Crimps were a breeze
Drivers side done! Noticeably brighter on the back up camera and surrounding area. Super excited for the modification and highly recommended.
Now, time to go, sit behind the car, while somebody reverse that me and stare at my brilliant work.
