You can gain access to it by opening the tailgate, removing the right-hand (passenger side) side panel and reaching down toward the back wall underneath where the tail lights would be. Hopefully, you do not have a factory subwoofer, otherwise you will have to pull that out before reaching inside. There is a connector that you release. Once you slide the bumper cover off, one end of the PDC wire will be attached to a rubber grommet. Just pull that off and your bumper should come off easily. It's really easier than I describe it. I've done it so many times now that it just feels like 3 steps.

I unbolted the bumper prior to disconnecting the PDC wire and ended pulling off two of the PDC sensors in doing so. Any tricks on how to disconnect the PDC plug/bracket (see picture). I'm having difficulties in disconnecting the plug (I don't want to break it). :dunno::dunno::dunno: I've read that to uncouple it you much depress the "locking" part and then pull down the "lever" part??

I also had to remove the Heat Protection Rim that was around the exhaust opening, in order to slide out the 8mm hex bolts. That was unexpected but simple enough once I figured it out.
