^^^Since the 335 and 535 share the same motor, the process is pretty much the same. Do a search here or on the web for "BMW coil pack replacement" since you have to remove them to get to the spark plugs. Pay close attention to how the wire plug connects to the coil pack and how it seats against manifold/valve cover. If you screw this up your car will not start or run right.
You will have to remove the factory strut tower brace, cabin filter housing, and engine cover to acceess the coil packs. If you are removing/installing OEM Bosh plugs you will need a 14mm, 12pt, THIN WALLED socket. Follow the steps and use the right tool and its a simple job.
Feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions.
