BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Replacement clips for external moldings

Sometimes it happens that you have to replace the external moldings and together with them also the fixing clips. This can happen for various reasons such as exposure to atmospheric agents or small bumps during maneuvers. If you are lucky as in the example shown in the images, you can replace the clips without removing the entire molding. Therefore, by slightly widening the profile outwards, you will try to lever and first remove the damaged clips, carefully observing their correct orientation. Then you will go to insert the new clip with a drop of oil on the tip, if you want, to facilitate insertion. Now you just have to hang up the profile on the bodywork. Car Model: BMW E46 3 Series Year: 1998/2007 Tools Required: Flat Screwdriver or Wide Flat Blade Tool
