Video for HID halos

Folks I have ordered Lux H8 to replace yellow halos on my 2011 E70. Is there any installation video or thread you can recommend.

Thanks a lot

I don't exactly know how to approach the bulb compartment. Replacing build is not an issue. Thanks

This is a 2 minute job on the E70. On the 1-series, I almost hired a baby midget.

Sneak up on it from the rear.

Sorry, couldn't resist. Just unscrew the cover and attempt to stick your giant American hand in a space designed for South Carolinians' tiny phalanges.

Use the guide listed here. I actually did this guide for them when I did my 2011 X5! Super easy, truthfully, a video would make it more confusing.

PM me if you have any questions and I'll help ya out.
