How to Replace the Position Light Bulbs in a BMW 3 Series?

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

Replacing the position light bulbs in a BMW 3 Series E90 is a very simple task. As shown, the optical group is accessible from the small door located at the front of the wheel well, but since the light in question is positioned too low, you need to remove the wheel well itself. To do this, simply unscrew the 6 screws that hold it to the body. Once removed, take off the light cover, disconnect the connector, and extract the bulb after unscrewing the two securing screws. Finally, install the replacement and reassemble everything by following the reverse procedure.
