instead of wiggling around from the front through the hole in the bumper you can grab it from the engine bay side and push it through - much easier then the other methode.

Thanks TerminatorX5 - I was afraid to have a problem in the cabling or a plug in between the cabling - but since you told me that cabling goes straight through I was feeling better :-)

Best, Helmuth

I'm glad you got it all figured out...but I'm lost. Not sure if I'm the only one...but you have no signature nor did you mention what your model/model year/build date is...and there are multiple headlight/fog light set-ups...so help us better...can we have some details/info as to what model, model year, build date your X5 is...and what head light/fog light set-up do you have? Do you have halogen or xenon or bi-xenon...are the regular or adaptive headlights...or they pre face-lift or face lift head light assemblies and fog lights? :)

Thanks Helmuth,

I guess high street retailing isn't what it used to be. I may just go through Schmiedmann and have them sent to the USA so I don't need to lug them through the airport.

Enjoy your Christmas!
