totally off topic, an aqaintance needs to replace the angel eyes in the aforementioned 07 5 series. the stealer told him 60 bucks per light and "they might have to dismantle the entire bumper" hmmm
anyway I dont want to offer to do it, unless its a doddle ..I got enough to do. seems like aftermarket prices are about 30 bucks for the light but I havent seen ahow to on his car..anybody know?

Just changed out two the other day. I went in through the wheel well. Remove a few 8mm screws and pull back the plastic fender liner.

hmmm again...just watched a video where they show the whole enclosure being removed via the engine compartment. its held in by 4 torx screws, then lifts right out.
anyhow, it looks like my brother volunteered to do it, so....no worries here;)
