So easy that even I managed it

They look great on sapphire black as well

scottc · 01-07-2008, 06:42 PM

I want to get them on ASAP but I also want to get it detailed, will try and give it a clean and get them on and take some photos. Have to admit when I saw them on needforspeeds car I knew I had to have them

scottc · 01-07-2008, 06:43 PM

As for the cost they are £165 from the dealer, mine were a christmas present from my dealer

And to you mate...

I know it sucks, I think they should come like that from the factory but hey it's another way of BMW stealers making money.

Not strictly so Carlos.

I specced them from our dealer when we ordered our 335. They're on the original invoice and the BMW specification database along with the rear spoiler.

Just a dealer fitted option instead of factory fitted.

Absolutely Carlos, we never saw the car without them, they were all fitted when we picked it up.

Mine was the same, specced on the original order with the dealer fitting them during the PDI.

The originals are gathering dust in the loft.

I bet not many people know they can do that and most dealers (shit ones) will say they cant do it.

Yeah but the main problem is that you are still charged the full price for them instead of the difference in price. (realistically about 10p for some smoke)

By the time you pay retail and then a grease monkey £60 for half an hours work you are probably looking at over £200

Instead you can buy them on German Ebay for about £110 delivered and fit them yourself.

scooba0010 · 01-08-2008, 03:26 PM

Hi i bought mine from germany.only £110 and i have been tidying up my garage and have just put the original lights on ebay to get rid of them .Like others have said it is only a 30 min job first thing i did when i got mine home was to pop them in awesome on sparkling graphite
