I bought a pair of these and returned them. 1. Gasket is not silicone like OEM qulaity. 2. Press clip was not correct and required wayyy to much force to clip in. 3. OEM replacements are like 60 bucks. 4. I've learned 96% of the parts you should buy for BMWs are OEM parts.
No point in replacing the cup holders. if you cant put them 100 in their slot or the face plates are looking a bit worn, they're all easy fixes. Face plate pop off for easy replacing and when closing them and it sticks out a little bit all you need is a small ziptie. Easy to dismantle and reset the spring and retie it in with a ziptie since the area it catches are known for breaking. Dont waste money on trash plastic flimsy cup holders if the only problems is it doesn't go in all the way or it looks a little worn on the faceplate
Im on my 8th bmw nd the last two I have bought was my cleanest nd just so happens to have both cup holders workin perfectly fine in both of em 07 328i and 06 530i
Please put the type of floor jack in the description! That's WAY more convenient than what I'm used to! Nice video 👍Totally agree on the cup holders. I took mine apart & fixed them, but broke the trim piece... 13 year old car.
Great mods Chris. The first mod I did to the e93 was the smoked side markers. My cup holders are still in great shape because of the 56k miles, I guess. Or never used. The car was a third summer car in Germany. Have a great weekend, Nico.
Amazon has matte or gloss black kidney grills. Swapping the chrome trim on kidney grills to black really changed the look. Makes the car look more modern and I've never been a fan of fake chrome anyway. Along with eliminating the chrome @ the doors too. Black flows good with sparkling graphite metallic or space grey paint too. I believe pre lci had chrome door trim
The side markers are my favorite ..I got the smoked - looks well on black. Good find on the cup holders. My angel eye are deep in the housing so it more of a pain to get that bulb changed - you need the hands of a small child or spider monkey. Great content bro!!!
Any one bro I need help I got a 2006 330i the catalyst were clogged I stripped them the car was running like shit still after that I changed spark plugs coils and injectors and still misfire on cylinders 4 5 and 6 what can cause that
I just did The cup holder replacements and theyre are a relief! But they open like a jack n the box. Worth the cost all the way! I was a bit confused by the angel eyes. Mine are both out. I refuse to pay some shop 300 plus to remove my bumper. Bad news is cant pass pa inspection without these extra lights. You said you were going to just i stall them as is because the clip didnt fit then i see you use the bracket anyway. Dont wanna but impact drill for this. Can jack up tho. Is there enough room with wheel on? I really want these lights - hate the dim orange but not gonna convert to led
Great video been tempted to dip my toes in angel eyes of some kind for my E87 M-Sport. Oh my side markers looked like yours (Not broke though), once id removed the white gunk the i supposes was a gasket at some point, they came up a treat using the DA and some G3 for others but i guess they are cheap to replace and your new ones do lift the car! Hate those smoked ones i see on Amazon though.
Usually I try to wet sand and polish, and that might restore them! Beyond that, you can buy new (aftermarket) lenses online, but they can be a pain to install. Hope that helps!
hey bro, love the videos lately, are you rocking spacers on your car? i have a e92 coupe and would love to match your fitment if possible. its really clean man
… why do people call aftermarket crap “mods” you didn’t modify anything. You literally changed parts out for a slightly better part… was hoping to see some cutting of a hood, ya know, to modify it, or maybe a custom fuckin interior footwell light module of some sort?? These are upgrades you demonstrated, not mods.
bought sequential side markers, proved useless, 2/10 rating due to never using turn signals
💀💀💀❗️
I bought some from Amazon about 6 months ago and so far I haven’t had issues not even in the rain or while washing the car
It appears that you are, indeed, a BMW driver then....
Then you gotta buy blinker fluid - just a big hassle
@@delta_wa9700 it's weird, I've just bought my first BMW and I was amazed that they do actually have indicators. They even come fitted with bulbs.
I'm pretty sure that's a e91. Great video though.
Thank you because I was saying this in my head
hes refering to e9x in general
doesn’t really matter. same car fr
i have the black sequential side blinkers, the look really nice, and modern and not ricey or taccy at all.
Nice little upgrades mate however that car is BMW e91 and not e90
Thought I was the only one thinking that

Great video man you should do another with me interior things!!
yup my cupholder is stuck too and my door handle is sticky -.-

Should have just ordered the Oem cup holders. Even the oem ones have the silver piece as the old ones are discontinued. It may be an lci change.
Yes it’s an l lci change
Nice vid!
the cup holders were my favorite part. mine are so annoying 💀
Any one bro I need help I got a 2006 330i the catalyst were clogged I stripped them the car was running like shit still after that I changed spark plugs coils and injectors and still misfire on cylinders 4 5 and 6 what can cause that
Have a quick question at witch build year the Standard headlights have Angel eyes

Thats not a e90 🤔
About the digital gauge cluster is that a good interior mother put on your car and is it worth it
Surprised you haven’t coded off the US corner lights. It’s one of the first things I do to any BMW.
Why? They are still there.
I should do that! Great idea
I had the sequential side markers on my e90. They held up for several years
Amazing 🤩
Where can I find that car jack you used ?!
My headlights are dull and need to be replaced: what part(s) do you recommend and cost?
Usually I try to wet sand and polish, and that might restore them! Beyond that, you can buy new (aftermarket) lenses online, but they can be a pain to install. Hope that helps!
Oddly enough, the only thing working in my 535 is the oem cup holders.
😂
my curvey cupholder wont go all the way in
I have a big question. Where do you bought the under car lift? News one so badly 😁
I want to buy one too, but I cant really find a good deal..
Good fix !
Where you get your wheels?
do you have to take off the wheels to install angel eyes
No, you could probably manage if you had small hands and turn the wheel to one side.
hey bro, love the videos lately, are you rocking spacers on your car? i have a e92 coupe and would love to match your fitment if possible. its really clean man
No spacers, just the 550i factory m-sport wheels. They're pretty aggressive, you can find the specs online!
Hi Matie, can you do more videos on the BMW X5 e53? 😂
Weird that all the things you needed for your car are exactly what I needed for my e93 and I bought my parts on ebay so I guess we shall see😵💫
What kind of lift is that
Quickjacks! You can get them online or sometimes at home depot/costco
Hey brotha I have a few questions about the awd swap.? Could you possibly PM me ?
Have smoke side markers ..one is on its way to hell after 7months 😔
isn't that an e91
Order the back ones Ali express whites out dated looks naff
E91*
I think that’s an e91
Your quickjacks are facing the wrong way, read the manual.
Lmao....get real, that's the least of the problems

My experience with plastic ,'lecky, or lighting rubbish from Amazon is it all fits and operates for one month.. .
Then breaks.
Total waste of time.
More more
You don't deserve an E91 being you don't know the model and you deliberately disrespect this beautiful wagon with Amazon parts.
That’s not a e90
No, it's a Mercedes-Benz
Waste of money
E91*
