Video

can you make me a used one?😊

Thanks. This was useful when I went to install the bluebus in my e86.

Thanks, the perfect video I haved searched for!

did you buy 54-pin adapter for phone calls which sells separately ?

I understand the idea but the first 5 minutes of the video have nothing to do with an E85 but on the Bluebus page it's listed as "E85 Specific".

How is it working out for you, 1yr later? Any issues? Would you recommend attaching a microUSB cable so you can run firmware updates later without having to remove all the trim again?

Wife's toothbrush, I about fell out laughing

CJ is this you..?

Coupe or sedan? EDIT: If you have the 2001 coupe, there are incredibly tiny philips screws that hold the trim piece on and they are most likely rusted. Have fun getting them out 😩

Thank you so much for this presentation! Helped me to get my vinyl wrap secure under the back cover.

I guess no one has asked you this question how long does it last last please be honest after so many car wash and rain how long does it last

Glad there is a video but sooooo much movement of the camera makes me nauseous. Good gosh, get someone to redo this with a helper Manning the camera.

Are there any websites that sell that trim?

One of us! I shot mine with plastidip about 9 years ago after only removing the mirrors and it has held up very well but about time to re do it. This video will come in handy. I'm making a list of projects to take on while my steering wheel is off getting refurbished for the 10 year ownership anniversary of my 330ci ZHP. Mirror trim, paint parcel shelf and speaker grills, minor leather repair and dye, reglue seat back clips that are starting to come loose again, etc... Still in really good shape but I guess I'm shooting for great to excellent now!

thank you very much.

My 2007 3.0si has NAV and DSP amplifier. Can I just obtain the Bluetooth PK code and pair my Samsung S21 5G to it?

Is this the quickest way? I’ve been searching for ways to clean the bottom of slip-resistant. SMH. Takes me almost 20 minutes.

I did not understand, why you have disassemble the right bracket, looks like cables are in reach?

You could just mask off the mirror after popping the glass out or even leave glass in and use the trim restorer on the black trim without all this ball ache, that what I did 🤷‍♂️

so i am running into some of the same issues you were running into but a little different. the previous owner retrofitted some junk all in one units. in so doing they clearly have cut a connector out of the cars wiring harness. this connector seemingly would have been the solenoid shutter control when activating high beams. There looks to be a bundle of wires that they cut and taped up. Herein lies my problem, I have no idea which of those wires would control the solenoid activation when flipping the stalk forward to activate high beams. any chance you might be able to tell me which wires you plugged into or tapped to get shutter activation?

Hello man where can I find such a mirror why your mirror has no wires ?

A garden hose nozzle can spray off the debris much quicker.

thanks, it helped me!

My front cover was stolen WITH the foam, and i bight a replacement but i dont havce the foam. Can i mount it wothout foam?. I mean, its better than going around with everything exposed...

What is the tool called?

Great video nice and clear, thanks a lot

Appreciate the videos on the E46 -Thank you

You could have used the OEM reflector ring without gluing it. With the addition of a semi-circular piece of sheet metal to the reflector ring as follows: 1. Get a piece of 16 gauge sheet metal. 2. Measure the circular distance from one side of the top of the lens arm, to the top of the other lens arm, add about 3/4" to the total. 3. Cut a piece of sheet metal about 3/4" wide by the length you determined. 4. Bend the metal piece in a semi-circle so it fits flush along the back edge of the reflector lens housing. 5. Trim the piece to fit as closes as possible to the same shape as the metal housing. 6. Hold the piece in position and trim the length so it overlaps the side of the housing by 1/2". 7. Secure the piece to the hosing on both sides with a small pair of needle nose vice grips. 8. Drill a 1/8" hole through both pieces and secure each side with a short pop rivet. 9. Install the reflector and mark the locations of the original 2 side retaining snaps on the sheet metal ring. 10. Cut out a notch with a dremmel for the tooth of the snap ring and install it. In steps 3 and 6 the width/length may need to be wider, or shorter, trial and error will determine the size you need.

Instead of cutting out the plastic for the 6 small screws, why no just remove one at a time, insert a small flat washer just thick enough to keep the screw from protruding the back plate, then re-install with a dab of Loctite 242.

That's so cool!!!! It's amazing hehe!!!! :D

Hey that's so cool!!! I love it!!!! :D

Is it morimoto is better than original projector

Alright I just finished this project and I'm drinking a beer to celebrate saving $2500 on new headlights. I did one at a time so I would have one for reference while figuring out this project. The bulk of the time was spent figuring out the set up - seriously this took me forever. With it all figured out, the second one went MUCH faster. I essentially did what you did in the video - I cut out notches in the housing for the screws, as well as the edges of the torx bolt holes. I had to cut the top 'ears' off of the new projector. I also filed down the bracket at the bottom of the projector on both sides. It looked like the spacers you got in your kit we much shorter than mine. Mine were way too long to fit the projector, through the housing, bracket, and then fit the nut on the back. So I ended up not using the spacers. Just bolted through the projector, housing, and bracket. I was able to get mine pretty flush with the shroud; this was a relief after much trial and error. Epoxying the shrouds to the projector was dumb, but also easy enough. Sucks as you're going around trying to work fast (because of setting epoxy) but also not getting anything on the lens of the projector. I ended up not dealing with the high beam wiring. If that becomes a problem I'll take them back out and fix it. My halogen high beams still work. I also replaced my the headlight lenses with the AL ones (cheaper and supposed to fit). They fit the headlight fine, but they don't look right on the car. It's odd - I thought the molding was all the same, but I guess not. If this bothers me I'll bite the bullet and buy the more expensive ZKW lenses. Last note: the light output is great. While this project is a total pain in the ass, it's very much worth it. I cannot believe how badly my bowls were burned; they may have been the worst I'd seen when looking at other poster's photos. It should be criminal for BMW to allow such a shoddy product on the road. Thanks again for your video here. It would have been even more difficult without it.

hey man thank you so much for this. I purchased the kit last week for my ZHP and I'm waiting for it to arrive. As i've researched more about this project, it's hard to believe how much information is out there but it all feels so incomplete. Maybe i'm overthinking it. Either way, really appreciate your effort here. I'll be referencing this video as I attempt this project in a week or so.

Ok thank you

How do you get r rid of this noise

is that a fucking steering wheel cover?!

Mount end links first. Hand tight. Then pivot the sway bar up and mount the bushings, clamp, to the frame. Now load up the suspension and torque down the end links.

I think the true hero of this video is those windshield wiper blades and the coverage they get. What size are those

The kit you got is specifically made for and E46 with bi-xenons and ZKW bowls. Like I have. I just replaced one side, and it took a while because I was learning how to do it, but there wasn't really much drilling and modifying to do. Just drilled two holes in the reflector bowl and bolted it in.

You'd have to loosen the sway bar on both sides of the end link so you could adjust the sway bar to fit

Did you try turning it off and on again?

witch one is this?

I was running the same sessions as you - Gray Mazdaspeed3, #19, but I don't think we were ever nearby each other. From the 10 minute mark or so though you're behind my buddy in his Civic.

Thank you for sharing this video! Do you mind if I use this video on a website? Thanks! Chris

What mods did you made on your car?

Look at it lick what a happy pussy
