What's up, guys? I'm Andy from 1A Auto. In this video, I'm going to show you how to remove and reinstall this bumper trim piece on this 2015 Chevy Silverado. If you need parts for your vehicle, click the link in the description and head over to 1aauto.com.
I need to take this panel off. I'm going to use a 7mm socket and ratchet and take this screw out. This bolt that goes up, right here—just going to use this 7mm socket. I'm going to use an extension so that I can access it, and a ratchet. Take both of those screws out for the other side. Now we need to pull this panel off. I'm just going to use a little pry bar to get underneath here. Pry this out. There's some clips that are held in, right there, so just be careful. Try not to break them.
It's clipped in right there and right there. That actually came out pretty easily. Pull it forward. Now it's clipped in right here on the front. I'm going to release the clips from underneath. I'm going to grab this from the outside—this trim piece—and then from the inside, I want to release it. There's clips right here, so I'm just going to use a trim tool. There's one back here. Once you get the first one out, the other ones come out pretty easily. I'm going to try to pull from outside the vehicle. I should be able to grab it and just slide it out, just like that.
Next, I'm just going to take this bumper trim and line this up in the front. Get it centered in the front, like that. Then come over to the side and push this side in, and then we'll do the same with the other side. There we go. Take this screw; get this screw started, and then there's another screw that goes through here. Once those are started, take that 7mm socket and the ratchet and tighten these down. Do the same for the other side.
