Not all are used from the fitting kit but you may need some penny washers for the screws.

Very easy to fit. Comes with everything you need and some extras as obviously fits on a few different vehicles. I used 2 jacks but you could jack a side at a time.
3 bolts go at the back then think there was 4 screws up each side and 1 at the front.

Simply jack the van up push the small silver clips over the bumper where the screws go, you'll see where they go when u have a look. Fit the 3 bolts first I left them loose to start then fitted the front into the bumper, the fingers go over and under the bumper at the front, then put the screws through the washers and screw it up. 10 min job.
