Not 100% yet, but for the fogs im thinking you can go thru the front fender just like you would do if you were replacing your reflector....

I second this question. I have some new low beam bulbs I want to use! I've looked at the manual and pulled the covers off but cant get the damn bulb out!

I've found the easiest way is to put the connector back in the bulb, will be much easier to hold onto the connector than the two sharp legs of the bulb. Try to move and tilt the bulb out at the bottom.

They twist off, and you can go through the inspection panel in the wheel arch liner for the low beam bulb.
Good luck with it ;-) Cheers. Last edited by Hypnotic; 02-25-2014 at 03:03 PM.. |

Did you ever get the HID's fitted.
I have asked about fitting them to my F30 and I was told they would not work with the existing light components. O do night driving in the country and the halogen bulbs are practically useless. |
