We will have to meet up for Coffee at Katie's in Great Falls on Saturday morning when this area reopens. In the meantime, I am buffing away on the X5 roof this afternoon here in No VA. near the McLean/Arlington border...

Thanks for the offer -- I'm about 3,000 miles too far though. :D

That offer was for Franccesco as he appears to be local, you however are WAY TOO FAR AWAY to help personally :)

Yep. My RH taillight/brake light does that a lot.

I swear that the light issue happens then my MAF goes to hell.

Probably just coincidence but if not it'll be crazy to find out why, so.....[emoji28]

Just replaced my RH tail/brake bulb a week ago. The left side is much less prone to failure. Day before yesterday received a set of LEDs bulbs, hope that will reduce the number of times I need to go in there and swap bulbs. Will try get the LED items installed in the next day or two. Also received the LEDs for the instrument cluster so there is a quick project there to complete.

Installed LEDs on my E70 where the brake light bulbs eventually burn their way thru the housings. I installed eurotails and didn't want those to suffer the same fate. The LEDs worked fine and so far no evidence of melting housings.... :-)

Replaced rear left door handle carrier...

Did you remove the door actuator to make the job easier.

Yes but aligning it was a bit tricky. Once it aligned, everything went in smoothly. Ordered a front right one now...
