Great job man, really helps the regular dudes out there who may not have all the fancy tools. Shows what you can get done when you need to get $h!t DONE!
I replaced my grill with a OEM Ford part. I did not totally remove the bumper, it looked to be too much of a pain to unhook all the wiring. I just unsnapped the tabs holding the old grill on and slid the new grill back on to those same tabs. Easy peasy. The video did help with the screw/fastener locations.
Any scratch, broken clips when installing the new grill? I got an aftermarket grill to replace the oem grill that broke in the middle and considering this method to do it fast.
Any suggestions on getting the bumper off my 2019? I removed everything that I can remove and the pieces between the fender and the bumper are still held together even after I took the two screws out
Great video. I got my grill replaced, but having challenges on the drivers side with those two hard to reach screws. They don’t want to tighten all the way leaving a 1/2 in gap in the quarter panel seam. Have you run into this challenge? I’m baffled. Thanks!
Your video surely helped. I got my grille on today. Man, that passenger side angle bracket with the window wash tank right there is a pain in the ASS. Great video, dude! Thank you
Planning on doing this to a 2017 soon but I have a few questions. For tools do I only need a philips head, flat head, 5-15mm socket wrench, and 8-10mm sockets? And for the sensor issue you had. Will everything be fixed if I make sure it's all plugged in before re installing?
Does anyone know if the Ford Fusion front bumper from a 2017 will fit on the 2015/16 Fusion? I'm thinkin on buying the 17 bumper so I can upgrade my 2015 front bumper (just for the look of the square fog lights)
I just got a 2019 titanium and wanna do a black grill replacement like this. Any recommendations on where I can find one for 2019? It seems like that year's parts are a lot harder to come by than 2018 and older
Where exactly would the “hood sensor be located” mine pops up all of the time and I bet it’s for the same reason as yours. I’m getting ready to take my bumper off in a few days!
Nice video,. only a remark for Ford, guys, I had 2 Mondeo's / Fusion.. both with no hood struts.. also this 2017 has no struts , only stick... So its quite a shame not using a proper hood strut, as this is a nice car, and all others OEM use this solution... If it was a Ford Fiesta yes, but for a big car like this.. just a shame not paying the necessary attention..
I had to take the bumper off my 17 to replace a smashed grill today. Watched this video about 5 times beforehand. Got everything put back together, started the car...."HOOD AJAR". Dangit! Luckily managed to get to the connector through the wheel well without having to completely remove the bumper.
Is this the same for a 16?? Also when you pull the bumper off is there room to disconnect all the wires? I saw another video where he removed the cover under the car to disconnect everything before he pulled the bumper, but that looks like a pain in the ass lol
Also if you read this, what cables do you need to disconnect and where are they? I’m wanting to do this exact same thing to my fusion but I’m scared enough already of breaking the bumper or not being able to put it back on correctly

What size sockets did you use?
Great vid, especially for beginners! Much appreciated for my ram air install.
There is also a damn fastener in between those 2 bolts holding the bumper on closer to the headlight
!!! This is very important no one mentions this, and it will make it impossible to take your bumper all the way off!!!
Any suggestions on the fastener between the two bolts? How the hell do I get this off?
@nicholasholland4950 any suggestions on the Fastener removal on a 2019 Fusion? I removed all the screws and I cannot get it to come off

im glad i was able to help somehow

@@alexb.california3933 no damage, just take the time to make sure everything is good before reattaching
@@wills4343 thanx man. Just made up my mind to try that route installing.

Yo can you show how you fixed the hood sensor, what cable was mismanaged and what did you do to fix it
Your video surely helped. I got my grille on today. Man, that passenger side angle bracket with the window wash tank right there is a pain in the ASS. Great video, dude! Thank you
Dude please tell me how you did it
How long did you fight the clips that held the grill to bumper .😊 great video
Thank you so much for this. I legit couldn't find anything for 17 and up fusions. Thankkkk youuuuuu
Alex Macalpine no problem! i had the same issue
Great video thanks, how many sensors are there in the bumper?

1) Yes, 2) Yes // Just make sure everything is plugged in.
@@brobet cool thank you.

I updated my original grille install video with this link. Also thanks for the thumbs up!
do you know if this fits in my 2019 sel model?
Reynaldo Rivera it should fit
no, i ordered it and it didnt fit on mine. Its not big enough
So have to remove bumper if I want to change front grill?
Have 2015 Ford mondeo 2.0tdci
Leave 2 screw on the top when doing the bottom so it don't drop on u lol
Does anyone know if the Ford Fusion front bumper from a 2017 will fit on the 2015/16 Fusion? I'm thinkin on buying the 17 bumper so I can upgrade my 2015 front bumper (just for the look of the square fog lights)
will this work on a 2015?
Yes yes
@@brobet hey man I was wondering where did you get those headlights they look clean
Hey, I'm planning on installing a honeycomb grill myself and I was wondering what tool set you use for the screws
just a philips head and a flat head screw driver along with a 5-15mm socket wrench
@@brobet ok thank you!
I just got a 2019 titanium and wanna do a black grill replacement like this. Any recommendations on where I can find one for 2019? It seems like that year's parts are a lot harder to come by than 2018 and older
This is one of the best ones I could find. Haven't bought it yet. Click on "see compatible vehicles". ebay.us/yuS2UC
When it came to the bracket connected to the fender and bumper did you pull it off? if so from what angle?
Digg Network you have to unscrew the screws that holds the bracket on, once they’re off pull downwards and the bracket should snap off
try to pry the fender open and try to light up the inside so you can see, and just by feeling around you should find the two screws
Ok appreciate your response.
What socket u use
8mm and 10mm and sometimes 11mm
Link to those fog lights?
Where exactly would the “hood sensor be located” mine pops up all of the time and I bet it’s for the same reason as yours. I’m getting ready to take my bumper off in a few days!
it’s on the drivers side and it’s a little connector under the headlight assembly

THANKIOU❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
great job on the video, can you do a video showing how to take off the passenger fender.

I literally just want to put a lightbar, why is Ford so difficult
I had to take the bumper off my 17 to replace a smashed grill today. Watched this video about 5 times beforehand. Got everything put back together, started the car...."HOOD AJAR".
Dangit! Luckily managed to get to the connector through the wheel well without having to completely remove the bumper.
broooooooo that hood ajar thing is a B but it's good that you got it before you put everything back!
How did you get to it without removing the bumper again?
Like vid great info on how to Thanks
Will this fit on a 2019
Coyote Club ya it should

Is this the same for a 16?? Also when you pull the bumper off is there room to disconnect all the wires? I saw another video where he removed the cover under the car to disconnect everything before he pulled the bumper, but that looks like a pain in the ass lol

Anyone know how to fix u0284 code
Great video dude
Thanks for the visit
Here I am trying to yank off the bumper those 4 bolts were there.... Once I took them out boom came right off
Video about taking off the bumper but never actually takes off the bumper. Nice.
Wow... That was some pretty technical stuff 😂
Thank you so much for this
Also if you read this, what cables do you need to disconnect and where are they? I’m wanting to do this exact same thing to my fusion but I’m scared enough already of breaking the bumper or not being able to put it back on correctly
You could have shown the bumper being removed all the way, that would have been a good visual.
I take it this is the mondeo just with a different name ( Americas version haha)
Bruh that right bumper bracket screw got me pissed af.
Please tell me how you did it
You didn't even show where the other screws were or how many they were nice
