four half inch bolts hold them on under the bonnet, two at the top of the bumper, two holding the brackets to the front crossmember. (You may need to remove the plastic coverings on the inside edge of the headlights if they are fitted)

two self tappers on each wheel arch which sometimes need cut off :-/

Then theres plastic clips just in front of the wheel arch that just pop out.

you'll need to disconnect indicator/foglight multiplugs and headlight washers if you have them and its off :)

Yeah Steve sorted mine out last month for £200 fitted... it's not perfect but better than the duct tape holding the original together :)
