How to Remove the Armrest Cover on BMW E90, E91, E92, and E93

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

How do you remove the armrest cover from the interior of a BMW E90, E91, E92, or E93? You need to perform a series of manual operations that involve using a screwdriver to push the internal screws (located on the lower end of the structure); with another tool, a small hammer or even a pair of pliers, you should tap the screwdriver to allow the screws to expand or contract. This way, you can insert or remove the cover from its usual location. Hire a professional to avoid causing significant damage.

Once you have made your choice, installing the new bulb can be done without removing the headlight. Simply open the front bonnet, locate the protective cap of the bulb holder, and press on the corresponding latch to remove it. Then grasp the bulb's power connector and pull it out along with the bulb itself, disconnect the connector, fit the new bulb, and press it into its seat until it clicks into place.
