DIY: E92 Angel, Cornering and Fog Light Videos.

Russian325is · 01-09-2009, 06:40 AM

A little step by step on how to install your new angel eyes, cornering lights, and fog light bulbs. Video might be a little shaky...I didn't have any help and pretty much had to do everything with one hand while making sure I was recording the right spot.

Anyways..hope this helps.

Note:
- Never touch the glass part of the bulb. The oil from your hands can make it pop when you turn them on.
- And..both of the angel eyes turn clockwise to remove (if seen from the front of the car) and counterclockwise to screw back in.
- Watch on high quality for better image.

Angels and cornering bulb..

Fog Light

Excellent post man...great job on the videos.

Great videos ........

The first one ..... "a little pain in the ass ........... "

I laughed out loud only cause I know what a pain in the ass it is to get the H8 in/out of the housing ....

Great job

Ok well I did the cornering eyes easy, but I can't see enough so I'm going to stop and do the Angels in the day time.

i was looking at the passenger side fog light.. and it seems to be a bit different since it has the intercooler vent there.. any video for that side..

This is a fantastic post...really helps reassure oneself that it's not difficult at all. I may look into upgrading all my lights. Thanks man!

gotxbst · 06-22-2009, 02:15 AM

thx for the video...just finished install

j-tuned · 12-27-2009, 08:21 PM

quick question, i just did the angel eyes (OMFG it took forever) but it feels a tad loose. i got the oem bubs to recheck the fitment and the oem bulb goes on pretty tight. could it be the new bulbs or i just installed it wrong?

If the bulb is flush with the housing then it's installed correctly. If you can't push the bulb out of place then it's locked in.

coh4777 · 02-23-2010, 01:56 AM

Do you need to disconnect the battery before doing any of these installs?

Lotus99 · 02-23-2010, 03:30 PM

I've never heard of anyone doing that for a simple bulb change. Maybe for the HID ones as they're special, but these 3 aren't.

zesus-3 · 03-17-2010, 01:15 AM

What bulbs did you use for the replacement, and can you post pics????
