2018-2020 Chevy Traverse bumper and headlight removal guide

[@RCINFORMER]

Thanks for the great video! I just subscribed! Our front camera got taken out by a rock. I only needed to remove the screws from the right side of the car and 4 underneath the front center to be able to pry the grill & cowl forward enough to replace the camera on the grill without totally removing the grill & cowl... Almost $250 for the camera at the dealer PLUS LABOR and a $150 BS diagnostic fee. You can get the camera for about $120 ish and replace it yourself with this great video you made! Thanks again bro!

Happy to help. Always good to put in a little work to save a lot of cash!

Same thing happened to my wife's Travers, perfect shot to take out the camera. Did you have to reprogram the camera? My dealer said that is required.

[@DarinSchuette]

@@rick_w Did you end up doing it yourself? My camera cracked after coming out of a warm carwash at nearly 0°F outside temps. Also wondering if that's "right" side as your looking at the vehicle aka driver's side or passenger?

Thanks for posting this. I did mine before but it was 4 years ago and now I want to access the front camera harness and change headlights to the blackout ones. Not alot of videos on the 2020 Traverse. I'm also having issues with a red triangle on my camera dash. Dealer changed VPM and a coaxial cable but stills does it.

What a royal pain with all those clips and small retainers, a lot of work to remove a bumper and be careful not to break any tabs or clips.

[@BrianScotland]

Thank you we had a similar issue with the grill and I will be replacing it at some point and using this video for reference

[@johnbriscoejr9738]

Question: Do you need to remove the front bumper in order to remove and replace front headlight assembly?

[@JPSurratt1986]

Yes, unless you have really small hands. I explain that step towards the end of the video and show where the lower bolt is located.

[@misakomoko]

i still dont get it. i got traverse 2021 and i want to add a bug guard to protect radiator... this seems painful to remove grille

[@ExDeadman]

Thanks been looking for my 2018 equinox this works perfect ! 👍

[@mrvang8077]

I'm looking for a complete guide on how to remove the front grill from start to finish disassemble. NOT a picture of what it look like after.

[@heartwarrior9762]

I'll make a video soon about changing the radiator👍🏼

[@bearsfootball70]

Could u put up the actual removal process of the front fascia please. Also, how much was it for the fascia?

[@JPSurratt1986]

We bought the replacement on ebay for $150. I don't have the vehicle anymore; I was just helping a friend out so I don't be able to get anymore video for you.

[@darincowen1861]

I need to replace the grill on my 2018 Equinox. Do you know if I have to remove the bumper?

[@1richardanthony]

I need to replace my radiator. Does the bumper need to come off or can it be replaced from up above? Thanks

[@JPSurratt1986]

I'm not 100% sure but it looks like you might be able to pull it from the top. I couldn't find any diy videos for this generation. Good luck!

[@stevendomenech7405]

Excellent video

[@Hamad.Kuwaitt]

Nice and helpful . Thanks

[@juan6719]

Nice very thoughtful

[@uribeh1313]

Did you have to replace the grille air shutter?

[@JPSurratt1986]

No, just the center grill.

[@sergioguerra984]

hi I need to buy a new bumper chevy transverse 2018 any information

[@JPSurratt1986]

www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Front-Bumper-Cover-For-2018-2020-Chevrolet-Traverse-84088059-/184639997616?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286 I suggest you try and find one at a salvage yard that is already painted. It would likely be cheaper than buying this one and painting it.

[@araakillian2957]

video doesnt show how to removed the bumper

[@asatira]

I need to change the grill on my 2020. Does the full bumper need to come off to get it out?

[@JPSurratt1986]

Everything but the center bottom bolts. You can lower the bumper down as the lower plastic is flexible enough.
