Bumper should come off with the headlights in, as this was the ONLY way to get the headlights out on my 95.

Did you get the 4 large bolts that hold the bumper to the frame? You could access them through the bumper turn signal on my 95.

Finch is referring to the actual metal bumper rail itself, not the plastic bumper cover.

The way he described is how it has to be done. And when you reassemble it just leave the bolts under the headlights out so you can take the bumper cover off without the hassle next time.
