hey guys i have a 95 bmw 525i and im thinking of changing the sidemarkers on it. (because i dont like orange :D )

i was wondering if anyone has installed the same thing im talking about. because i saw these clear corners for 30 dollars a pair and they look nice. how do i install them? do i just take the screw out? and if i do, what kind of clear corner bulb should i get?

should i use the same PIAA sidemarker bulb all my honda owner friends are using?

or is there some other brand? let me know guys, i need feedback :help

I replaced the side-markers on my car along with the clear front and rear lights... if you have orange lenses on the rear I would recommend replacing those at the same time as well. It's very easy (on the e39 anyway) to replace them... just pop them out with a flathead screwdriver and replace. Takes about 30 seconds. As for bulbs, I went with PIAA superwhites because the standard autoparts store bulbs flashed really dull. Good luck.

thanx man, but i got all the help i needed from liquidtiger. he helped me a LOT with lighting and clear corner and sidemarker questions, if your a moderator. kindly delete this thread.


bimmerforums ROCKS. everyones so helpful, well off to reading some more posts :)

saw your email.

the sidemarkers are pretty easy. just take out the screw, unclip, and unlock socket. installation is in reverse order.

corner lights are a lil pain in the ass. just remember there are three screws.
