    Hey everyone, recently installed some aftermarket taillights in my 05’ 325i. Noticed had an external ground connection and didn’t think much of it since In the tutorial it was just tucked away (guy said it wasn’t necessary) . During installation, noticed that both taillights don’t work. Only...

    The LEDs on my left taillight are shot and I’m ordering a new one. On realoem diagram there is a “protective adhesive film” (part no 51718102827). my current taillight has a small gap where dust and water can get into. The black plastic cover with the rubber seal is in perfect condition but the...

    Not sure if this is a touring only part, so as not to confuse anyone, I'm going to post it here. I went to address a bulb out message and discovered that at some point there was someone in here who broke the retaining clip on one side of the inner tail lights(the ones on the lift gate). Not like...

    Our 325Ci 9/2002 (technically 2003 model year) has an unusual tail light arrangement. Each tail light has 2 single contact bulbs on each side 1 for brake and 1 for reverse. But the running light socket requires a 2 filament bayonet type bulb. This is unusual as there's 1 contact on the...

    looks like i got tail lights for the M3 that had the wrong tail light connector on them but i found the right tail light connector that would work off of a E90 325i. the problem here is that the E46 connector has 7 wires while the E90 connector has only 5 with a open 6th wire insert, i assumed...

    Hey everyone, I purchased a set of used depo led tail lights from a forum member and when I received them it was missing one of the resistor black boxes. The lights work but it gave me the bulb error light on my dash and they flicker slightly. I tried to find another one but can't locate one...

    Today on "What is this?!" we have a mysterious pink wire in my trunk. A little background: Recently went to the dealer to get the airbag recall done. They checked the computer and the taillight recall was also in the system and they said they could take care of both recalls at the same time...

    Hi everyone. Like many of you, I was frustrated about the few non-functioning LED bulbs in my stock LED tail lights on my 04 325Ci. And as a bit of an electronics geek, I decided to take up the challenge before I spent hundreds on a replacement assembly. I was successful and it is easy to do...

    I have a 325ci that i would like to add a switch to that would kill all the rear lights but leave the headlights on. No its not for running from the cops or anything like that, if you have nothing better to input then saying, "don't do this", please just don't reply. Anyway i know that the brake...

    Hello guys, I'm a brand new owner of a 2003 330i, and I couldn't be more excited about it. Overall, the car is mechanically sound with a few cosmetic issues from some less competent previous owners. 1. The third brake light (the light bar on the inside) is hanging down on one side giving it a...

    Hey all, I'm about to sell my car, but some things have come up that I'm unsure about. My '04 330ci has a muffler delete and an aftermarket M3 bumper, and a friend recently offered to trade his stock bumper and exhaust with mine. Would having stock parts increase my selling value, or should I...
