Great help here, - thanks very much all - appreciated
Thats OK.

Rear bumper removal is a worrying task but is extremely easy to do!

The hardest part you will find is disconnecting the electrical clips (ask said!)

Done mine in situ with p40?p38? the red body filler <with surgical gloves on> taped it in correct position first and used fingers to apply.

Only takes literally 5 minutes to remove the rear bumper, even with tricky electrical connectors.

Rear number plate lights are changeable without removing the bumper, by the way. Depending on whether or not yours is pre or post facelift they twist out or the cover pinches off - accessible if you lie on your back / side
