Default front reflector

Hi all. Does anyone know how to replace the reflector in the front bumper of the X350?

I've busted mine and have bought a replacement. It looks like its just a clip on affair but does the wheel and inner liner have to come out in order to access the rear of the bumper or is there a quicker way that I'm not aware of.

Thanks in advance.

Mark.

It's just held in by two metal clips on each top end and a plastic tab toward the front of the car. You will need to use a plastic trim tool or similar so you don't scratch the paint and pry from the top. it will pop out from the top and you just swing the unit down to the ground (like your opening an oven door). When I took mine out to replace the bulb socket (vw socket is a good replacement for the rusty bulb socket) it was in there pretty tight. So tight you think you're doing something wrong but you're not.
