Great write-up! But I need some help.

I purchased the clear reflectors (instead of body painted ones) to replace the ambers. The passenger (left) side is easy, but I need help loosening the driver (right) side to gain access.

Is there only 1 8mm screw that I need to remove? This screw isn't the type that can be removed with a philips and is located in the wheel well pictured below?



Where are the other 3 silver phillips head screws that attach the front bumper to its support. Do these need to be removed prior to trying to pull the front bumper aside?

BMW tend to be very held together by plastic mounts. I really don't want to break any of them and have to buy a brand new bumper (this happened to me with my 3 series. Thought it was a easy removal. Ending up breaking a plastic piece on the bumper and had to get a new one).

Any advice/tips in bumper removal to do this job would be greatly appreciated!
