Crazy bright. Makes me sad cause it illuminates all the dust on my trunk

. Never noticed that with the halogen lights lol.

And will do. I'll post a pic tomorrow. Now need to find a red sharpie for the job.

TX78666 · 12-12-2011, 10:15 PM

Installed fog light trim and license plate light lenses. Still haven't had time to do the headlight retrofit. :-(

MSportBMW · 12-13-2011, 03:48 AM

Got a brake flush

moiz21 · 12-13-2011, 09:24 AM

Installed my new gauge cluster rings. And did the red sharpie mod.

Irishdb · 12-13-2011, 10:52 AM

What is the "red sharpie mod"?

moiz21 · 12-13-2011, 11:09 AM

If you look at your cluster, the needles come white from the factory. Used a red sharpie to make the red.

lsteg · 12-13-2011, 11:12 AM

Miko_10 · 12-13-2011, 12:34 PM

New Philips Ultinon D2S bulbs
20 and 25 mm H&S spacers

Now I just need to stop being lazy and get it all installed!

Just wanted to give some feedback on the LED reverse bulbs I mentioned above, they are the business! Totally puts to shame the previous, 24 SMT LED bulbs I had in there, I can actually see behind my car when I back up now. HIGHLY recommended.

Just got this...

If you don't mind sharing how much did it cost you and where did you get it?

serdar255 · 12-13-2011, 03:29 PM

Got my Umnitza csl reps and I have to hand it to them great quality for the price. Also recieved my Pirelli PZero M+S tires from tire rack! I want to get the BMW Performance BBK, BMW Performance SSK, and led plate lights but dont want to spend another 1300 dollars.

Zell · 12-13-2011, 03:29 PM

Leaned on my glovebox a little too hard when I was getting something out of it and broke off this teeny tiny little pin.

http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?...38&hg=51&fg=30

It's part #16. It breaks with not much force, so if you ever do this, don't freak out. It's $0.48, and the catch that holds it is a buck fifty

Which did you get 1156 or 1157? And what kind of lens? Spot or Wide Angle?
