GotBMW

I want to get the red reflectors for the rear bumper. What is the BMW OE part number?

Thanks!

here in the states, I think most people get them from Bekkers.com. Running around $28 for the pair last I heard. This is where I got mine, and they are original equipment BMW parts, not a third party knock-off.

here's the link...

Thank you !

you're welcome. Have you seen other threads w/ directions for pulling out the black inserts? I used a length of cooking twine, slip behind the corner of the black insert and pull. They are on clips and pop right out. New reflectors snap right in.

gotbmw, i got mine from my dealer for free . i think you should ask your salesperson before you order from bekkers since this is not something that too expensive for them. but make sure you remove the old ones by yourself. otherwise the service guys won't do it nice and slow . i don't want you to see chips and small dents around that areas .

Another bit of advice on installing them is to carefully look at the new reflectors when you get them.

You can sort of learn how they are held in by looking at the back. The blanks are held in with similar tabs, etc.

Here is the official way to remove them from BMW:
