A second person makes the task easier but I've taken mine off and on probably 4 times in a week period.

Just make sure when you put it back on this time you make sure everything is lined up.....foam, underneath and on the sides.

If you have to force it.......chances are it's not lined up.

When everything is lined up it snaps into place and the alignment is good.

Underneath on the plastic tray is were you get a lot of hang ups...

Why were you replacing it? Were you in an accident that potentially damaged some things behind the bumper?
