Hi There,
Can anyone tell me how to change the fog light bulbs on a 05 e61? How do you remove the light from the bottom front grill? I believe they are H7 bulbs 55w, no mention in the manual at all about changing the bulbs or removing the units. I am upgrading my bulbs from Halogen to Xeon. Can anyone help??? I dont' want to remove anything i should not or break anything. I know it's probably straight forward but thought i would ask the forum before i go at it like a bull in a china shop!!!

A lot of people go under the car and through the wheel well.
There are plenty of DIY in that section. See:

I have a mtech kit so I didnt go this route. I removed both headlights and installed my fogs that way. Once you remove the headlight you will see the bulb just underneath it.

I changed mine when I had my headlight units out to change the angel eyes. Once you remove the headlight unit you have lots of room to work from above.
