2004 E55 estate
Hello all. I bought E55BOF's splendid E55K estate via this forum some weeks back, and have been enjoying it immensely. Slightly less immensely since somebody nudged the car in the rear while it was parked up, realigning one of the parking sensors at a jaunty angle.

I don't think it's broken: the full set of "imminent contact" lights come on (not just the four reds of death), so I reckon it's taking a "reading" from the section of bumper it's now pointing at.

Anyway - what with all the flaming tailpipes it's very hard to get at the thing from behind and beneath. I can just about get a grip on the rubber housing around the sensor body, but not enough to get even that off.

Am I being stupid (very possible)? Or is it less of a faff than I fear to take the whole bumper off?
