Default 2003 Discovery 2 front bumper removal

Watched a video on Youtube and felt confident. My 2003 is not at all like the one featured in the video. Can anyone refer me to a good video or even just a diagram? Thank you.

David

Lots of screws. Lots and lots of screws. 2 10mm bolts on each side and 2 more in the front. All 4 are under the painted finishers. But just when you think you got all screws there is more.

When removing the finishers start at the side closest to the middle of the bumper then move toward the tire for the part that wraps around the bumper.

Easiest way is to remove the grill first, then the headlights. With those out you can get to the bumper bolts easy. Don't forget the screws in the fender liners and on the bottom of the bumper.

On the 2003, it was not necessary to remove the grill or headlights. Bumper came off really pretty easily. Right now, my question is about the verticle holes that need to be drilled. Instructions say 10mm at one point and 6mm at another. The existing holes in the bracket are closer to 6mm but the hardware is much larger. What size bit is appropriate? Thanks.
