you can buy the kit on ebay or amazon with oem hooks, and even the bezels to fill the holes.

Thank you . Watch a YouTube video and it looked hard. He was going to cut holes in the existing inserts I have large hands and well it looked hard to remove the plastic inserts.

Can you install these on an Express, the bumper doesn't look like it has inserts?

There was a thread on here about how someone did it. But they had to cut holes in the OEM insert to run the tow hooks through.

Buy the kit with the OEM bezels for the tow hooks. A lot easier than trying to cut the holes in the existing inserts. I did it with my Bighorn.

-remove the four 10mm bolts holding the insert in, slide it out from the side.

-slide in the tow hook bezels and reinstall the 10mm bolts.

-remove the nuts for the upper mounts and then slide the tow hooks through the bezel and then onto the bolts, install nuts and torque to specified ft.lbs.

-install the long bolt at the bottom through the rubber grommet and torque to spec.

-Done.
