WELL THATS A PISSER

The outer lights are going back now, they are doing a swap for the correct item.

+1 make sure you fit each side correctly or they won't turn on

The wiring harness look the same for each side but they arent. Just make sure you cable it up and test before you put all your covers back on

Lol! Did you also make sure you got the European ones with amber indicators?! Because I found a cheap set before and nearly ordered the wrong ones. The parts I ordered for my e93 are

1 -- TAILLIGHT OUTER PART L.-SIDE -- 63217252091
1 -- TAILLIGHT OUTER PART R.-SIDE -- 63217252092
1 -- TAILLIGHT INNER PART ON THE TRUNK LID L.-SIDE -- 63217252783
1 -- TAILLIGHT INNER PART ON THE TRUNK LID R.-SIDE -- 63217252784
1 -- RETROFIT CABLE SET, FACELIFT LIGHTS -- 61122181311BMW

Hope that helps!

BMW Steve · 07-15-2016, 08:13 AM

There off this e93...

Such a shame to see it in this condition

BMW Steve · 07-20-2016, 02:35 AM

Spent a little quality time with baby girl yesterday evening, I purchased some H8 LED angel eye bulbs and decided to fit them, what did not help was me having shovels for hands but I got there in the end, hello bright white, goodbye yellow..........

I also put the new plate on the car, to match my f11, BM11SAR and now BM10SAR

Hopefully, LCI rear lights will be with me on Friday

BMW Steve · 07-21-2016, 02:12 AM

And hear we go again, I asked a mate who happens to be a mechanic to fit my coilovers for me, it was a bitch of a job, not as straight forward as he thought. He got the levels just right, no rubbing or catching on the front wheels, the car feels a lot better as well, it doesn't wallow any more.

Gae her a wash after then followed by some photo whoring

richk84 · 07-21-2016, 02:41 AM

How do you find the wind deflector? Ive got mine in my boot still in the case waiting to be used.

djgandy · 07-21-2016, 03:00 AM

Which coilovers did you go for?

RajB · 07-21-2016, 03:40 AM

Looking spot on.

I fitted my Ohlins and didn't think it was too bad.

I leave mine on the car, I use it all the time with the roof down and don't take rear seat passengers any way.

I went for a set of SPAX adjustable Sport Coilovers, the ride is a lot better, and now she doesn't wallow.

Getting fed up, the LCI rear outer lights arrived today, after receiving a set from a coupe they agreed to do a swap for a e93 set I already have the inner lights from the first time, the outer lights are on, turns out the inner lights are from a coupe as well,,,,

I tried eurocarparts but they didn't have the part numbers in stock and said that for two of the parts they were never getting them back in! honestly took ages to find them for my E93 and then i found schmiedmann. let me know how you get on

Lockman_321 · 07-26-2016, 10:45 AM
