Dutch term or phrase: uit-/inbouwen

for an accident report, I have to translate a schadecalculatie and am running across automotive terms I can't find - this 'uit-/inbouwen' appears several times in an itemization of arbeidsloon costs. Examples:
"aanbouwdelen voorbumper uit-/inbouwen"
"v-spoiler uit-/inbouwen"
"mistlamp L uit-/inbouwen"
etc. I had not expected to run across terminology like this in this text which is otherwise a police report - thanks in advance!
