Turn Signal 128i--front

Alright, I know there is a post or two regarding this topic but I've not found any actual DIYs. I know it is simple but I am curious if the bulb can be replaced from under hood behind light cover or do you need to go in under wheel well? Please let me know when anyone gets a moment

There should be an access panel inside the wheel liner that is removable. At least that's the case on the 135i with HID's but I doubt the halogens are any different.

There's also a description in the owner's manual.

I'll check it out...its 128i adaptive hid...did you have to remove light cover first?

The pic of the wheel opening is mine, the other was borrowed from Google. I added the arrows and text.

All good, I did both sides as I have a tail light bulb out as well and Tischer informed me they were the same bulbs but they are not so I had two and apparently I had the standard amber colored bulbs in there currently and had ordered the nicer silver coated amber bulbs and wanted them to match up...naturally.....thanks a ton!
