Heres an easy way



but the other way would be tro get the front in the air, Have a nosey round to see what holds it all there if not front bumper is easy to get off and you may find the mounting brackets Behind there

IIRC there are 2 bolts to undo... only had to do it once(well i watched it bein done ) after my fog smashed on the motorway... get it in the air to get better access, and i think there is a plastic piece you will need to remove to get to it but then its just a case of 2 bolts, and the electric connector! job done! doesn't take long at all and you wont need to remove the bumper
