The steps to remove the rear bumper of the Changan Eado are: 1. Open the trunk and locate the plastic screws securing the rear taillights. Unscrew them counterclockwise by hand. 2. Disconnect the wiring harness connector of the rear taillight, then remove the screws and wiring harness. 3. Remove all screws securing the bumper and gently pull outward to detach the rear bumper. Taking the 2020 Changan Eado as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4730mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1505mm in height, with a rear track width of 1566mm. The 2020 Changan Eado is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 158PS, a maximum torque of 260Nm, and a maximum power of 116kW.
I just removed the rear bumper of a Changan Eado, which isn't difficult but requires some patience. First, prepare the necessary tools, such as a Phillips screwdriver and a small pry bar, and park on a level surface to ensure safety. The steps are as follows: First, open the trunk to locate the fixing screws of the bumper, usually hidden behind the lining panel—slowly loosen and remove them once found. Second, check the wheel arches for plastic clips and carefully pop them out using a pry tool, keeping them collected to avoid losing any. Third, there might be a few screws or bolts underneath the car—crouch down and remove them with a wrench. Fourth, be mindful of the reverse radar wires connected to the bumper—gently unplug them to avoid damaging the wiring. Finally, hold both sides of the bumper evenly with your hands and pull it outward gently to prevent scratching the paint. Wear gloves throughout the process to minimize the risk of cuts, and clean the screw holes after removal for easier reinstallation. The whole process should be done slowly and takes about 20 minutes, making it a great DIY project for beginners.
