How to replace E60 fog light bulbs?
#1
Can someone tell me how to replace the fog light bulbs on the E60? I would like to replace the yellowish factory bulbs with the PIAA Extreme Whites. There are no instructions in the owner's manual on how to access the fog light assemblies, which are behind the black grill inserts on the fascia. I presume the grill inserts are removable, similar to the E39 setup. Perhaps someone can provide TIS documentation on what appears to be a simple operation.
Thank you.
Thank you.

welcome aboard, xrsxj ! some of us did it and it took us less than 20 minutes . our methods are a little different but basically is remove the panel from the bottom. it's a lot easier than remove the headlights .

I went with PIAA Xtreme White 4150K bulbs, which match the BMW xenons (which are 4200K) very well--here are pix:
