The rear bumper to the caravan is it held on by Christmas Tree Clips Or Screws?

To remove the bumper cover on a 2002 Cadillac Escalade to access the license plate assembly, you'll need some basic tools and follow these steps:
**Note:** Be sure to take necessary safety precautions, and if you're uncomfortable doing this yourself, consider consulting a professional mechanic.
1. **Gather Tools and Materials:**
- Screwdrivers
- Socket set
- Pliers
- Trim removal tool (or flathead screwdriver)
2. **Raise the Vehicle:**
- For easier access, you can raise the front end of your vehicle using a jack and support it with jack stands.
3. **Remove the Wheel Well Liners (Optional):**
- Depending on your vehicle and access, you may need to remove the wheel well liners to reach the bumper attachment points. These are typically held in place with plastic clips or screws.
4. **Remove Retaining Clips and Screws:**
- Locate and remove the screws, clips, or fasteners holding the bumper cover in place. These are typically found along the top and sides of the bumper.
- Use a trim removal tool or a flathead screwdriver to carefully pry out the clips.
5. **Disconnect Fog Lights (if applicable):**
- If your vehicle has fog lights integrated into the bumper cover, disconnect the wiring harnesses.
6. **Detach the Bumper Cover:**
- Carefully start detaching the bumper cover from the vehicle by gently pulling it away. Work your way around the bumper to release the clips or fasteners.
7. **Remove the License Plate Assembly:**
- Once the bumper cover is loosened, you should have access to the license plate assembly.
- Remove the screws or fasteners securing the license plate assembly, and detach it from the bumper cover.
8. **Install the New License Plate Assembly:**
- Attach the new license plate assembly to the bumper cover, using the same screw holes or fasteners.
9. **Reattach the Bumper Cover:**
- Align the bumper cover properly, and carefully push it back into place, making sure it clips securely.
10. **Reattach Retaining Clips and Screws:**
- Put back the screws and retaining clips in their respective locations along the top and sides of the bumper cover.
11. **Reconnect Fog Lights (if applicable):**
- Reconnect the wiring harnesses for the fog lights.
12. **Reinstall Wheel Well Liners (if removed):**
- If you removed the wheel well liners, reinstall them and secure them with the clips or screws.
13. **Lower the Vehicle:**
- Carefully lower your vehicle from the jack stands if you raised it.
Remember to take your time, work carefully, and document the disassembly process if necessary. If you're unsure about any step, it's always a good idea to consult your vehicle's repair manual or seek professional assistance.

it probably will be

The tailgate panel is held in by what we call "Christmas tree" retainers. Any screws would be under small round plugs, remove them and screws.

Lift the tail gate. There are clips or screws along the top edge. Remove this. The clips all you do is pull the center pin with a panel tool or pliers then the rest will come out. Then you will need to remove the clips holding the rear side of each of the back wheel wells in. Under that will be more clips, screws or bolts that hold the side edges of the bumper cover on.

Push clips, or used to refer to them as christmas tree clips. Try getting a pair of side cutters under it but don't squeeze too much on handle or you'll cut the head off, but if you do, any parts store has more. Then pry up & out with side cutters. Parts stores also have a tool specifically for them, shaped like a fork with 2 prongs.

take off interiour door panel, panel is held on with a combination of screws with caps over the hole, just get a small screwdriver and pop them off. there will be some christmas tree like pressure clips, once you have all the screws off, start at the corner and slowly pry the door panel away from the door, you may have to lift up on the door panel as it might be

raise up the tail gate . remove the phillip screws holding the handle or pull down strap.remove all other screws holding the rear plastic tail gate panel in place than start in one corner try to pull down on the plastic panel as it is also held in place with push style plastic clips.you can use a straight blade screw driver to start releaseing the clips.once you have the panel off you have done the hard part/ just unbolt the wiper motor and reassemble.
good luck chris

The door pane is held on for the most part by plastic christmas tree shaped clips all along the door's edge, a plastic putty knife works ok to release them but there is a special tool, there are about 10 of then and they can be a bugger to release the first time. Be very careful not to damage the door panel they are very expensive.
