HELP angel eyes installation troubles
i was stumped today when trying to install my new angel eyes on my e90 pre-lci. pretty much i cant get the damn housing off for the lights. i can get the bottom clip off no problem, but the top clip is impossible for me to remove. any suggestions or tips would be awesome as im dying to get my new bulbs installed.

Start by removing the top clip first. Use a small flat head screw driver and wedge it in there and turn it sideways. Push the cover down and it will come off (well the first slip will come loose).
Then while holding the cover down, unclip the bottom one. |

Yea it's a tight fit. If you are still having trouble with it, you can come down to Jersey and I can help you. I'm about 20 mins from NYC. I can do it from the top without pulling fenders for the driver's side.
However, on the 335 there's something blocking the passenger side so you need to pull the fender. |

If you're in LI, go visit Matt@Camber-Toe. Great guy to deal with and extremely helpful.
He can install the AEs in like 20 minutes. Seriously. I've seen him do it. hahaha
