Hi Everyone,

I dont post here too often but I installed my new OEM Euro clear corner lights and side markers yesterday and wanted to share a few pics.
My original amber corner lights were full of condensation so i figured it would be a good time to upgrade.

Honestly it doesn't fit to bad. It is definitely a tighter fit than with the OE rubber boots but that is to be expected with the thicker stiffer silicone.
I removed the DISA, then dry fit everything to get the orientation and angles just right before I clamped it all on. I wasn't a huge fan of the look of the aluminum F-connector that was included so I went with a new plastic F-connector for $1.29 to keep more of an OEM look.

Thank you! I think so too! I also have a 2009 X3 in space grey and I think that the all clear look with the grey gives the car a much more modern look, especially parked next to the X3.

Those look good!

Oil change, transmission fluids change with special hot climate mix from uuc. Lightweight flywheel and stage 1 clutch I purchase from a member here experienced the gear rattle. New combo seems to work for now. Ordering new front corner signals since my DEPO clears were leaking and ruined the finish. Also fixed my aux input. It had been "broken" for a while now. Finally pulled the cord and plugged in a new one and voila!

Everytime waxing/PCing your car, you should use blue painters tape in all the trim.

And here I thought you've been listening all these years.....

A wet rag and elbow grease.

Clear FTW! Consider stealth bulbs to lose the egg yolk look.
