PDC Cover Removal

[X5Kiwi]

I am trying to remove the bumper cover on my 2000 E53 4.4 using the instructions here:

I am up to bolts 5 and 6, "behind outer PDC covers".

How do I remove these covers? I don't have PDC on my X5 so they are just plain covers, but I can't see any slot for putting a flat screwdriver under, so I assume there is another trick to getting them out?

Get a really small flat head screwdriver - it'll come out

Yep figure it out, best way is to start at the rear (closest to the wheel) with a small flat head.

I managed to replace the entire aux fan in 3.5 hours, taking my time to clean the whole bumper cover in the process, and also cleaning out the radiator of all bugs, stones and bird parts :-)
