Rear bumper ferrules

Hi.
The rubber ferrules on the rear bumper of my saloon are all perished & hard & by the looks of it they've been stuck on with silicon. I'm intending to buy some replacements but how are they fastened on? Do they just slide over the bumper mounts & push against the body or is there any other parts, or should they be siliconed on as mine are?
Thanks.
Neil.

You gotta unbolt the bumper then they slide over the end of the bar they're on. I've just had my rear bumper off (to deal with the rust at the points it fixes to in the boot) so its fresh in my mind :)

So they just push up against the bodywork? Did you use any sealer on them?

Is the grommet fitted from inside the boot or outside?

I firstly undid two big nuts one on each side of the bumper and then the black ruber things just pull off and then i buy from ebay number 160479673555 and just slide over the end of the bumper bar, very easy job.

thank you

no sticking because the bumper will hold them in the place....
