My Ride: 05 530i M Sport Sedan / Silver Grey
Default

Hi guys,

Can someone pls confirm for me that the globes in the fog lights of an 05 530i (with halogens) are 9006/HB4, the owners manual gives the type for all the other globes in the car apart from the fogs.

Also has anyone replaced these with the M-tech kit, there is a hex bolt next to the fog light, do you undo this to get access to the globe?

cheers

I have replaced mine with My SuperNova Hid Conversion Kit on my 525i pictured on the signture. Yes they are 9006 halogen bulbs. Look on my post and you will see a DIY.

Its quiet easy you can either do it through the wheel well by turning the wheel inward. Or take our your head lights which Is acutally better. Soon I'm going to post up a more detailed DIY.

Here are some pics how to do it through the wheel well after take off about 6 screws that hold it together.
Left and right side. But taking off the head lights you have way more room to work with and is much easier.
