How to replace the fog lights of the BMW 1 Series F20

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 2, F20, F21 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Fog lights

In this video we can see how to replace the fog lights of the BMW 1 Series F20 version: we need to work on the wheel arch, so we turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction, and do not forget to turn off the car and disconnect the battery. We will only need an 8mm key and an H8 bulb, as well as a pair of gloves. We will have to unscrew the wheel arch bolts, in order to access the fog light, which is just behind the protection. If we are on the left side, we will turn the bulb holder clockwise, while if we are on the right side we will turn it counterclockwise. Then disconnect the electrical connector and remove the bulb. Replace it with the new one - which we will only touch with gloved hands - and then proceed in the opposite direction to the removal, to reposition it in its place. Put back the wheel arch screws, and it's done.

This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
