How to Remove the Rear Bumper of the Yidong?
2 Answers
The method to remove the rear bumper of the Yidong is as follows: 1. Open the trunk and pry it open by hand; 2. Unscrew the plastic spiral fixing the rear taillight by turning it counterclockwise; 3. Unplug the wiring harness connector of the rear taillight, then remove both the spiral and the wiring harness of the taillight; 4. After removing all the screws of the bumper, pry it outward, and the rear bumper can be separated from the body. The Yidong is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4730mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1505mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 116 kW and a maximum torque of 260 Nm. The drivetrain is front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear.
I've owned an Eado for several years and have removed the rear bumper a few times. First, prepare tools like a Phillips screwdriver and plastic pry bars, and park on level ground for safety. Open the trunk lid and locate the fixing screws near the taillights—usually three or four—then unscrew them slowly with the screwdriver. Next, gently pry open the bumper edge clips (small plastic pin-like parts) using the pry bar, being careful not to pull hard to avoid deformation or breakage. Then check if there are reverse light or radar cables connected and unplug them by the connectors. The whole process requires patience; after removal, you can inspect or clean the trunk interior. Last time I cleaned the rainwater drainage channels, it was much easier—removing and reinstalling a rear bumper isn’t too hard with proper tools. Remember to take photos beforehand for reference to prevent misalignment during reassembly.
