How hard are those turn signal lenses to swap out?

Can't replace the "lense". You have to replace the corner (Lense and housing).
Simple though.
Not hard at all. As Dane said, its an all in one bulb and housing. I used a trim pulling tool to pop the old ones out and its just a matter of aligning the clip on one end and a little notch on the other to the mating points in the body.
Took me all of 5 minutes. And I'm not the brightest crayon in the box when it comes to all things mechanical.
You talking turn signals or side markers? Turn signals, what Dane said. Side markers, very easy. Just slide over (I think toward the front of the car), disconnect plug, pull out. Reverse to install. You may need a credit card or something that won't scratch to give it that initial push to get it moving.
Yes, I was referring to side markers. You do slide it toward the front of the car, a credit card or anything flexible and non-marring is helpful to get it started.
One other note, when you unplug the light hold onto the cable, that sucker wants to run back into the fender and would be a nightmare to fish out!
Did my first oil change nothing special. But was fun for the first time. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/10/5ahenupu.jpg

The DEPO sidemarker you replaced it with still looks yellow to me. Just clearer. The OEM one is like super clear and silver lol
I just purchased an OEM M3 strut brace from Kijiji, and then realized that you need six special collared nuts for the install. They are $16.50 each at my local dealer. F^&*ing BMW!!!
Anyone have a set they are willing to part with at a reasonable price?
I think you only need four if it's the CF bar. That price is still crazy though.

It's the stock M3 brace, not the fancy carbon fibre one. It takes 3 of these special nuts per side, and then you are supposed to reuse 4 of your factory nuts to assemble the centre piece to the end brackets.
You seem to have four of the collared ones and two regulars - maybe all 6 should be collared?
