Actually just completed this task. The bumper definitely needs to be either removed or loosened and lowered by a good 2" or so. The bezels have a lower lip that tucks in behind the bumper.

Thanks very much, I was begining to think somehow the the side piece might split apart. Was hoping to send out the bezels for re-chroming tomorrow, I will lower the bumper next year, thats the price we pay for having fancy rear taillights. Take care!
Yes I have had mine off several times. I generally completely remove the bumper bolts on the side which I want to gain access to the lense, and then loosen the other side until it is low enough to remove. It makes a quicker job if you don't complete remove the bumper.
If you are happy with the re-chroming share the company you used here. It really makes a big difference having it done.
The company that did mine did a great job but told me not to refer anyone to them. I guess they were a real pain to do.

Okay will follow that procedure without completely removing the 400 pound bumper!

First off, welcome the the crowd! What's missing is pictures of your "daffodil yellow" 66-300! I think you're the only one here with one?
