What Fasteners Need to Remove on 2019 Chevy Equinox to Install Blue Ox Base Plate Kit

Published 01/16/2019

Question:

We have removed all fasteners and are to the point of removing the fascia. The video is not detailed at this point where we are trying to work the fascia away from the fender. We are not having success at this point. We have been able to pull the fascia out slightly where the one screw was removed, but not beyond that. Are there any pins or anything else that need to be released to get the fascia to pull away from the fender?

I attached a picture to this page that I hope is helpful. I took it from the install instructions for the Blue Ox base plate kit # BX1730 and it shows where all of the fasteners are that need to be removed in order to remove the front fascia. Once they are all off Blue says that you'll need to pull each of the corners of the front fascia away to get it to fully release. I attached a link to this page to see the full instructions as well.
