How do you change the mirror bulb on BMW X3?

Model: BMW X3 G01, MK 3 - Years 2017-2024
Part: Side marker bulb

In order to replace the mirror bulb, it is necessary to pry with an object so that the glass of the mirror can be detached from the inside of its seat: after the glass has been removed, it will be possible to remove the hooks located on the top of its housing, in order to completely detach the cap. In this way it will be possible to unscrew the screws in the lower part of the housing, in order to be able to extract the headlight and disconnect its connectors. At this point the bulb in the headlight can be removed and replaced with a new spare part.
