Parking sensor removal

[Umar x5 3.0d sport]

Hi new to this forum, purchased a 2004 x5 3.0d yesterday. Noticed that two parking sensors are not working. One front and one rear.  Any ideas how to remove the rear parking sensors? Is it a bumper removal or can it be accessed behind the bumper? Same with front. 

Thanks in adv

As my daughter says you don't need them there is a thud sound when your to close ??

All the rear sensors can be accessed behind the bumper the center two from the pop out cover for the tow bar. The fronts pre-face lift all pop out from the front but I believe facelift models it is bumper off /

Have a look at www.pelicanparts.com they have some brilliant how too's with pictures, also try www.newtis.info this is a BMW technical information site with how too's

Hope this helps
