..Want to Change Front Signals.. Solaris Bulb.. What needs to be done??

http://www.bimmian.com/SOL/92

for an E92.. i have an M3 yet i believe any 335 owner can answer my question..

do you need to remove the headlamp to change the headlamp signals..
and if so you would have to remove the entire bumper, correct?

no easier way to change a signal bulb ??

i looked throught the DIY's but no luck

Unfortunately there are no aftermarket turn signal bulbs for the E92 because it uses a specific fit bulb that is not available. You can get Solaris bulbs for the rear bulbs and sidemarkers however.

i know four people that have solaris bulbs and they eventually burn out....sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Mine just burnt out after about a year of use, but they do have warranty on their bulbs so I guess that's a plus.
