removing and replacing side indicators
I have ordered some clear repeater lenses for my Z4 and I have looked for a post on how to remove and replace them. I cant find one so wondered if anyone knows how to do it. I have also ordered the clear third brake light but that looks pretty straightforward. cheers in advance of your help

Just turn them anti clockwise - they pop straight out

If you push on it as well whilst you turn it, goes a bit easier then.

You have to transfer the badges though, easily done. I also bought the actual "glue" part as well for 50p or so as that saved me messing about with alternative glues to get the badge back on.

Re: removing and replacing side indicators
I don't suppose you have the part numbers for those clear indimacators? at that price, it's pretty rude not to.
