Removing Rear Bumper To Install Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75736 on 2007 Mercedes ML350

Question:

I cant figure out how to get the rear fascia off. I have your trailer hitch. I have taken the bolts out of the bottom and cant see how to remove the fascia. Cant see how the top of the fascia is attached.

I did some research on the internet and found that some of the bolts may be behind plastic tabs on your 2007 Mercedes-Benz ML350. The rear bumper may also have safety cables attached to the rear mud flaps. You will also have to remove a center fascia bracket that is pictured in the instructions. When you slide the rear bumper off, it will need to be slid straight back, as there are tabs that the bumper slides into to attach to the vehicle.

I have linked instructions for the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, part # 75736.
