Is this a really easy mod? Few screws come out..pop in the new ones...put screws back in....done? Or is there more to it?
The DIY is here. Really simple.

For the pre LCI (US spec), there is a yellow reflector on each side of the head light. Many members here prefer the cleaner look of the Euro spec E60s which has no yellow reflectors. So, an inexpensive way to fix it is to put stickers on them and we referred to them as "euro stickers". I believe member Akaluis is selling them.
