Slide each end into the groove, then just snap the rest in. Pull the adhesive tape and your done.
Great info, thank you. I think I'll give it a shot...

Upgrade the lights to Weisslicht Halos

Plans are to find some elegant black 18 x 8.5 wheels for it and mount snows on the originals. PS Are my wheels the Sport Package wheels??? I was told they were but they look different than the other ones in this thread.


I just put the white halos on my 2006 330i. Got the bulbs from www.bavauto.com . You have to take the wheel well out on both sides to get to the halo lights but it is worth the trouble. $150 with free shipping and done in 90 minutes or less.


UPDATE:::
One of my Weisslicht halos went out in the first 3 months. BavAuto Refunded under warranty. I actually found some on Ebay in a little higher strength for about $35 shipped to my door in a couple of days. This was a great deal and came with an install tool kit.

Aluminum trim... check
6 MT.... check
Sport... check
Premium... check
Heated seats... check

I was done for as soon as I saw the pics. I was debating ordering this EXACT car, but only in a 335i. I think it was a sign from God to take this lease over instead of paying $45k+ for the 335i....


Very nice! i have the same exact car packages and all.
Alpine white,Terra,Aluminum trim, 6mt, Sport package, Premium package, cold weather package, but mine has comfort access as well.
never seen someone else with the same car. its a very rare combo with packages. Is you car "i" or "Xi".
Mods done so far to my 330i :OEM Blackline Tails, Lux AE, K&N drop-in, BMW Performance short shift kit w/ OEM ZHP ///M knob, OEM M-tech Front Bumper, ACS roof Spoiler, Custom Eye Lids(Amber reflector delete for head lights)Painted Alpine White, OEM gloss black BMW Performance grills with custom chrome inserts and Active Autowerkes stage 2 tune.

First Pic is my previous set up. all others are my current set up

Rear pass windor regulator broke last week @ 47k miles. Replaced it in less than an hour ( thanks to this forum) and bought aftermarket regulator for $60. Out of curiosity, I contacted the dealer on performing this…. $325. Ridiculous even for a dealership.
