Kies, you guys are awesome! Plugged in window switch harness after reinstall, now window switch/mirror control is not working. Bimmerpost had the answer: When you reseat the plug into the harness, ensure the grey handle is fully opened (9:17 in video he opens it fully) then when you reseat the plug, push firmly (not hulk strength) until grey bar begins to move on its own, towards the top/lock. Keep holding pressure into the plug, then reset the locking handle past the top clip. Check the window lock/unlock for the green light. Then you know you have power. I went thru fuses, posts and frustration till I simply reseated the plug. Works great! KIES ROCKS!!
i literally just got into my f30 and said i need to replace this asap..rite on time 💯
When putting the door-liner back onto the door: Start at the top as Brian does. Just know that some of the clips (maybe all of them), along the top weather seal tend to slide aft, out of place along the weather-seal (about 1/2") as you remove the door-liner earlier in the sequence (about 3:17). Gently push the clips - forward along the weather-seal so that they align with the openings along the top of the door-liner and proceed (about 8:57). Also, the drill bit that he's using must be maybe 5/8" and only deep enough to free the plastic-melted head from the shank of the "rivet."
Just noticed this issue in my car recently when I chipped the rubber on my driver door. That stuff is nasty. Good to know that when I am ready there is a quality replacement out there. Thank you!
You can put some grease on all metal clips and also door clips( basicaly on any clip in the car) before reassembly. This way you prevent rattles and also if you have to remove once again it will be much easier and with less chance to brake the part.
Two years later and you’re still helping people out with that tip. My guy🔥
What kind of grease?
Great tip! I could not get the handle cover on and remembered this tip. With grease it went on easily.
In case anyone is wondering, the process is exactly the same for the F32.
Clicked on this link for this exact reason! Thanks
Just replaced the gummy piece on the driver's side of my 2014 328d Wagon. It was driving me crazy. Your guidance was impeccable and essential. Thank you so much.
Awesome video. Tip in case anyone runs into it. My plastic rivets weren’t coming off as easy as Brian’s were and I’m pretty sure it was because the drill bit I was using wasn’t quite large enough to bite the plastic away as quickly as Brian did.
I finally finished this mod after starting it a month ago with one handle. The first one took me 45 minutes, then today I did the last three in 90. Feels and looks great. I couldn’t have done it without your video, thanks Brian and Kies Motorsports!
I was literally going to request this! Bryan is a mind reader. Thanks! 🙏🏻
I gotta thank u! Just ordered my f32 replacements, wanted to see precise screw removal process.. as always, you gave me exactly that. Thanks Brian!
Omg the diy reminded me of when i replaced the door actuator in driver side smh but worth it and saved me alot of $$$ . Thanks again kies your definitely looking out for the F30 community 😎
yoo you have any tips for the door actuator diy? Im preparing to do it this week.
AWESOME thank you for the very detailed instructions. I’ve been meaning to replace this for a while. Now I feel confident that I can do it myself. The dealer wanted to charge me $500 but I bought the parts for under $25 total! Thx again
I'm literally trying to figure this out and watching a way worse video. You read my mind! Thank you!
This video made it easy to change out my old handle. Watch video for the section you are working on it makes it much easier to complete. Thank you Kies Motorsports.
Thank you so much. This is the exact video that I was looking for. You never let us down Bryan!!!
A set of four for US$125.00 seems quite reasonable. Getting the soft touch plastics right has been a challenge for other manufacturers as well. Toyota/Lexus did a warranty replace on entire door skins a couple years ago. At least we're not back in the bad old days of vinyl and plastic "outgassing" and leaving a fog on the windows and everything else in the interior.
I did the driver's last year on my F30. Now the passenger side is next. Thanks for the upload!!
YOOOO, I’VE BEEN NEEDING THIS TUTORIAL !!! thanks bro!
Just rented a 2012 BMW 3 Series on TURO. The handles were gross and stained my daughter's sweater. Bothered me so much, I CZcams searched for the fix. Perfect! A must fix!
Been needing to replace mine thanks for this tutorial 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I watches 3-4 videos for this theme. This video is one of the best.
Thanks Brian!! I just fixed mine today on my f80.
On my first trim cover, I cracked it in half 😭 took a couple hours but thanks for the video and selling the exact beige set in my F30!!!
Thanks for this. I just bought a 435i and that was the only thing that bothered me about it.
Thanks. I followed your instructions and successfully replace the sticky handles. Only difficulty is the removal of window button pad.
FINALLY A VIDEO ABOUT THIS
Very helpful video. I had to replace my door lock actuator and was able to replace this stuff at the same time.
Excellent video, very detailed !!!! great tip to remove the door switch from inside the panel to prevent any damage Thank you very Much !!!
Thanks God for this video! Mine started doing the same! Good to know there is a solution.
Bryan I missed the reply on a prior question. What size drill bit did you use to remove the plastic tabs on the old handle? I noticed you went slow on the torque but wanted to ensure I get it right the first time. Thanks as always!
That’s what we needed all this time
Great instructions, easy to follow and the changing of the handles was a breeze.
Hey Brian, loving your videos, been watching them from the star.
Can you do a door ambient lighting retrofit for F30?
I got mine I thought it was easy! I think i need to do some work now!
i need to get this done. I hate how the sticky part looks, feels and how its stains the trim. Thank you!
I am replacing my drivers side only. After you drilled off the plastic tabs you mentioned some T20 screws to replace the plastic part. My replacement handle didn’t come with them. What size are they? Did you need washers with those screws?
Love the Vids. Appreciate you always sharing the tricks of the trade. I recently replace my actuator (from watching a video) and wish I would have also replaced the handles at the same time. I have a question what size drill bit did you use to pull out the back of the plastic tabs. Noticed you went really slow but I want to ensure I use the right drill bit size so I dont ruin what the new screw will fit into. Thanks again!!!
Thanks for producing this detailed video. So, to replace them with BMW parts, how do you re-attach them? I also need to replace the arm rest, which has a bunch of rivets, too.
literally replaced this a week ago and I wish I would've waited for this vid, bc finding out how to do it without instruction was a difficult process lol
Gotta do this soon, thanks for the video!
Definitely going to order a set thanks kies my beige one was just fugly!! 😐gr8 price btw .
Omgggggg THANK YOUUUUUU I just ran across this problem days ago.
I just installed one of these on my 2016 F 80 M3. The process went pretty smoothly even though it was not as easy as it looks when Bryan does it. One word of caution when I used the drill bit to drill out the plastic rivet caps after one was stuck on the tip of the drillbit I went to pull the plastic piece off the end of the drill bit and ended up slicing two of my fingers pretty good so be careful!
I read this comment first and still sliced myself lol
Great video!!!! Helped me do my door handle easily.
I spent hour getting the door panel off and i still cant get it out. You make it look so easy.
i just did this repair to my f30 and there is some rattling noise, which i believed, came from those replacement screws and their washers. Do you experience the same problem?
What size is that torx screw that goes into under the cover of the door handle??
Hi there, do you have a video on how to replace the sticky climate control buttons too? Thanks!
Do you know where I can get the fastener located in the door, in which you have to put the screw that holds the handle? When I was doing this I wasn’t able to put it back properly because I think I lost it
Yes yes and yes !!!!
Worse BMw choice and design....
Thank you Kies!!!
Brian, you have a solution for everything LOL love it
Bryan can you make a video how to remove chairs and replace floor carpet + ceiling ?
Just did mine…lost a packet of screws for the new handles. Found them after I had both doors done so oh well. Two screws each plus torx ones in door should be enuff! Great DITY…only comment would be to add the size of drill bit used to drill out those original rivets…first two I used were too small to do the job and one I found was almost too short. Got it done tho and looks great! I did the Carbon Fiber replacements to match my interior. 👍
Another awesome vid. B. Love item all so informative.
Dear, Is it perfectly same with F15 ? is there any other way to replace handles without door trim removal?
Hello by any chance do you have one for the E84 please. Thank you
I have an f15 and need to swap the passenger pull handle. I have the replacement and popped the trim off and removed the two big screws, but it's still stuck on the lower portion. Can you guys post how to remove?
Hey. Is the replacement a totally different feel from the OEM. Not picky. Just wondering. Since I'll be replacing only 1 door
will it fit to a 420i grand coupe?
any suggestions for replacing door pulls, 2015 x1 ?? cabon wraps DIY?
Got myself a new hero who I'm going to stick with! 😊
Hey Brian I need this for my f80 handles
Do you happen to have a link where I Can buy the cover? That you took off (carbon fiber)
Hey are the front and rear handles same size?
Thanks a lot
Peace from Lyon
I haven’t found a channel that knows f30’s as much as Brian
Totally could of used this before I got my f22 when I had my e90!! Passenger side handle was soooo gross somehow
Just got all of them replaced. 👍great quality handles from #KiesMotorsports
I may have missed it but what size drill bit should I use?
Hi Brian,
Funny I just looked this up for my 2012 335i, and yours was the first video! I know I’d majorly f- something up doing this myself. Do you guys do this install. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw you’re in Hammonton, NJ. I’m in Cherry Hill. How can I speak with you about getting my driver door handle done?
Thanks! Great, detailed video.
Awesome Video!! Thanks!! Any chance you will be getting the same made for F33 chassis code??? Mine are really janky and would much prefer these to OEM. Thanks!!!!
Of course now that I posed that I did some research and it appears that although the F33 has a different part number for the pull (51-41-7-279-312 on F33 versus 51-41-7-279-311 for F30) the fitment chart shows the F30 part number as compatible with the 435i ... Has anyone tried just using the front parts from the kit on a coupe or convertible??
Would you please put link in the description for BMW F31 3 Series Touring 320i xDrive Specs 2013 - 2015 I'm having trouble finding those on you're website
Do the 316i share the same part as the 320, 328...etc.?
Thanks great video! After installation my controller module is not working what might be a problem?
Check that the window module is seated all the way in. I had the same issue till I opened the locking lever fully, then with firm pressure, plug the module back in. The grey lever will move on its own towards the locking position. While holding pressure, seat the locking lever to past the clip.
#1 complaint in any bmw i've had
Install was easy, the actual issue for me was that re-installing the existing cover for the door handle won't sit flush with the new interior Kies part. Any insight on how to get flush fitment? I was in a fender bender and my car is actually missing most of the required clips, I guess they just decided to keep them.
Finally got around to doing this on my 2013 F30. Thanks for the video help. I did notice (to my excitement) that I did NOT have the melted plastic rivets noted in the video. My F30 apparently came from the factory with T20 screws at these locations (I bought the car new, so I know this isn't someone's DIY). Do you know if this was the case for Pre-LCI? I even went so far as to remove six or seven more T20 screws and completely remove the armrest entirely, which made accessing the T20 screws for the handle much easier than working through the holes in the panel. Also made removing the window control module easier too. Brian - Have a look at your F30 "Luxury Line" project car and see if this is the case. That is the same car I have. Thanks again!
I just pulled off the driver’s door panel on my 2014 F30 328i, and both the door handle and arm rest are secured by the melted rivets. No T20 screws holding them at all. I’m wondering if I can install the new parts using screws rather than figuring out how to melt rivets for them.
I did it! Tnx to you champ.
i have a 13 bmw 328i driver door somethimes does not open from inside it happened 2 times i have to unlocked from the lock botton and then it open what can cause that just have 38k miles
Wait, where did Brian get the replacement T20 screws to replace the plastic rivets? He kind of missed that part. Are they duplicates of the other T20 screws in the door panel?
Yes finally!!!!
this guy is the god of F30
What size drill bit?
Hi will these work on a F80 M3? Thanks
Can you please make a from cowl video. The plastic piece on the outside, bottom of the windshield.
Way more complex than this guy made it look. Took me about 1 hr. Taking off the door panel and the window operating unit was a headache. Thanks for the explanation and walkthrough though!
I cant get out the rivets with the drill. Any other way i could get em out?
Brian you must do a video how to repair an interior leather seat from making it look nice.
Thanks! Mine is all peeled off and nasty. My car is a garage sleeper and has window tints.. don’t use any sort of hand cream either. It’s just crappy material.
We need the center console leather rest and the driver arm rest
YES! I'm about to remove both of them this weekend, because they are done and broken after 8 years and 180.000 km
Does anyone know if the light connector from the downside of the door needs to be on a certain side or can it be plugged in on both sides? I put everything back on and now the light does not work.
just on time !
Perfect video
Hey man, I just got all the way through installation and the last t20 screw (at the bottom of the handle) was not screwing in and then I heard a piece fall into the door. I took the panel back off and tried to put the screw in where it is supposed to go and the crew is too small.. This hole is behind the foam overlay (on the door itself). I think whatever anchor for the screw broke off. Have you heard of this happening, or do you know what I could do to fix?
Did you find out the name of the mounting anchor for that screw? Just had it happen on the top screw.
Do you know what the clip is that hold the 2 t20 screws are? One of mine is spinning and need to replace it. Thanks in advance
had the same issue.
I think I found the part number tho. Part Number 07-14-7-265-039
going to order and redo that bit. ugh!!
Will these work for the 530i?
Hey you should add acc to your F30. Active cruise control. Stop and go I think it would be a good DIY for your channel
When I took my handles off, the two anchor points that the torx screws should screw in to had broken. One is under the felt cover, the other should be visible. It looks like its a square shaped plastic anchor, similar to the plastic anchors that hold the panel on. Does anyone know where to buy replacement anchors? For the time being, the handle is being hold to the panel (not the door) with those 4 tiny screws. I'm sure that if its not addressed quickly, I'm going to end up with the handle ripped right through the door panel.
I’m glad someone that I enjoy watching can relate to these shitty bmw interior problems, live the car but things like this just shouldn’t fail. Are the new ones the same kind of material as the oem ones of or is it more of a plastic that rubber, I’m happy to buy as long as they are not the same price as oem but non the less love the video haha my next mod
