Installing LED Ring for Angel Eyes Effect
Model: BMW Serie 3
E46
- Years 1998-2006
Open the front hood and ensure it is securely supported. Detach the side turn signal by loosening the mounting screw (access hole on the inner edge of the fender). Remove the trim-seal on the headlight by lifting the triangular retaining tabs. Detach the lower cover located just below the headlight. At this point, you can remove the headlight cover glass by disengaging the retaining tabs and extract the inner plastic frame. Then, attach the retaining clips (clip fasteners) behind the LED ring, route the wires over the reflector, and attach the LED ring to the edge of the reflector (if necessary, slightly open the clip fastener with a small screwdriver). Repeat the operation on the other reflector and connect the wires to the control unit wiring. Proceed with reassembly by first inserting the inner plastic frame; reattach the headlight glass (it is suggested to clean the inside carefully); reposition the lower cover, the upper seal, and then the turn signal by re-tightening the mounting screw. Finally, securely fasten the relay and take the positive power from the eyelet located just below the hood switch and the negative from the chassis ground. Complete the electrical connections as indicated in the installation diagram and properly arrange the wiring in the grommets until reaching the other headlight. Finally, open the wiring cover near the brake fluid reservoir and intercept the red-white wire with yellow dots (+12 V ignition) to which you will connect the other wire from the wiring with a "tap": this will allow the LED ring to light up when the ignition is turned on. Then close the cover. Optionally, you can also make an accessory connection to the red-green wire of the passenger side footwell light: this will allow the Angel Eyes to light up when the vehicle is unlocked with the remote.
