Rear Light bulb change / tailgate part
It is the section on the actual tailgate. One of the 4 red colored links does not light anymore. Also is there a standart lightbulb or some special part for that? (tried to used search but no luck) I would like to update this topic: the :"LED" strip have to be replaced as a whole lighting unit including the actual light plastic trim in the mean time the fog light BULB within the same light has gone. any idea how to replace it? how to reach it? is it possible from the inside or I have to remove the whole lighting housing from the car? thanks Last edited by peter530i; 12-10-2010 at 09:26 AM.

its not a bulb, you have to change the whole part, meaning entire light fixture

if you are on warranty then its dealer, otherwise you can order it yourself it would come out much cheaper (getbmwparts.com) and either install it yourself or have any mechanic do it. (plug in connector and sealant tape around the fixture)

$200 to replace a burnt out $2.00 bulb. Some smart thinking by those BMW engineers.
