Replacing LED Bulbs in Angel Eyes Headlights

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Headlight bulb

To replace the LED bulbs in the ANGEL EYES headlights, you must completely remove the wheel to access the front lighting assembly. Unscrew the screws securing the cover, those under the fender, and those under the bumper that hold the grille. Remove the fender grille, and you finally have access to the headlight. Remove the protective cap with a flat screwdriver, and using a 15 Torx wrench, unscrew the bulb holder, which gently pulls out from its seat after disconnecting the electrical connector. Place the assembly on a support and extract the bulb by removing the clips. Install the new bulb. Reinstall the bulb holder in its respective seat and reposition the headlight assembly in its housing, connecting the corresponding connector. Screw in the securing screws and reassemble everything.
