LED turn signals help

335newb · 12-05-2011, 10:48 PM

OK obviousley as my screen name suggests im new. i just got my 2007 e92 a little over a month ago. after a couple days i found i can not stand the amber turn signals, so i bought Led units. my question is this. i know how to read directions, i also know how to watch an instalation video. both of these things say i have an access in the wheel well that i just open a hatch and boom theres the bulb. that hatch is not there on mine, i can not be the only one who has this? any help would be appreciated, as of now i either have to take the headlight all the way out or remove the inner fender well just to change a turn signal.

it is quite impossible that you dont have the hatch (is it the base connector of the bulb that you twist to loose?)

Anyway to the OP, you have to remove the lining I thought to access the door. And you disliked the halogen turn signals and you bought LEDs?

Or, you hate amber and want to change the color? (Highly illegal, ceb will tell you all about it).

As far as I know only the M3 has the little access panel to the front turn signals, all the other cars need to peel the liner back.

After removal of the wheel it takes all of 5 minutes.
