Hi everyone,

Is anyone willing to meet me (location of your choice) to help install my LUX angel eyes?

I have a 2011 328i sport wagon, and for the life of me, I can't get the damn things in. Ironically, it only took me a few minutes to get them in my 335 sedan, but I for some reason can't get them to line up, and then turn in my new 328.

Any help/tips/advice specifically for the 328 engine bay would be greatly appreciated, as the driver's side seems to be a total impossibility.

Thank you!

I have found it easiest (talking E90 here) to either A] remove front wheels, or B] remove the plastic liners under the front bumper and front wheel well, or C] find someone with very small hands.

^ to do it right the first time, I recommend A and B.

Have the front lifted up and install both at the same time. I had no problems with mine, but you may need to move them around a bit to make sure the driver and passenger side have the same light dispersion.
