Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm non technical and I was able to switch the driver's side bezel with no trouble because of how well your video was done!
Great video, thank you for it. I appreciate you including the actual removal, especially the parts showing how much effort the initial pull takes. I was rather apprehensive pulling too hard at first 😅
Thank you for your guidance. Got the job done in no time. The handle cover was a little hard; I just had to watch that section again to get the technique right. Then, it was a breeze!
Thanks, instructions worked perfectly, found the handle on Ebay for $16 total time 1 1/2 hours including watching video. Only slip up, make sure the handle cable is seated before you put everything back together or else the handle wont work, minor 5 minute undo redo, elsewise everything came off and on fairly easily.
Very helpful! I must admit, idk if it was just mine but my door handle plastic piece was quite hard to get off. Other then that it was very easy to follow. Reconnecting the door handle itself would be nice to add but that’s okay. Thank you!
7:39 there are four screws. two long and two short. it's good to mark which is which because they are all the same diameter and you don't want to put a long screw back into a hole that a short screw came out of!
Hello @AutoRepairGuys, I just followed the steps and replaced the handle successfully, but post to that, my keyfob is not unlocking the door, but it is locking perfectly. It's unlocking other doors. What could I have done wrong.
Video is good. I it help a lot. Unfortunately the electric part didn’t work after I finished all the Set up. I doble check the connections and still not working. Any ideas?
He left out the step where he reconnects the electrical harness back into the reinstalled control panel. It was inferred but if you forgot to do it, your window would be stuck

I do enjoy watching these two guys working on the cars they have come long way. They’re professionals at this point.

Thank you!
I just did my driver side and it only took 30 minutes!
You just saved me $300-400!
Thank you, best video for this. Took me 3 hours but I was very careful and forgot some bolts so had to take door panel off but well worth it!!!!
Great video, thank you for it. I appreciate you including the actual removal, especially the parts showing how much effort the initial pull takes. I was rather apprehensive pulling too hard at first 😅
Great video! I would have liked to see the remainder of reinstalling the door panel, door camera, etc. Just as a precaution to not make it worse.
This is the best explanation ever, thank you brotherman, I did it no problems thanks to you. Subscribed!

Thanks for making this.
Thanks for posting this video, very helpful; I did mine today. 👍🏼
Hello @AutoRepairGuys,
I just followed the steps and replaced the handle successfully, but post to that, my keyfob is not unlocking the door, but it is locking perfectly. It's unlocking other doors. What could I have done wrong.
Oh yeah, your video inspired me and I did it myself. Awesome instructions!
thanks for sharing. my insert didnt have a screw hole towards the rear so i just used 3 screws
Why was it necessary to disassemble the entire door panel? Is it not possible to remove the piece without dismantling it?
great video, super helpful.
Thank you! Very helpful!
Great instructional 🏁

Same thing happened to me. Did you get yours to work?
@@jong5640 yes. I pushed harder to reconnect the wire connector.
Thanks, I was lucky to find a forum with a few guys with the same problem.
Great guide!
Thanks
sorry I can't find the link for the new door handle cover clips , I broke mine
It's should be crime for BMW to design a panel that they already knew. The cheap material would melt on hot day. And make it inaccessible.
Followed the steps comnpletely...no issues until the end..None of the switches work. The divers window is stuck down. None of the other switches work.
Did you ever figure this out? Same thing happened to me

Perfect.

Any guesses why the window switch doesn’t work after reinstalling everything? I doubled checked the connection and still no good 🥲
I did the passenger side the other day and it worked fine after reinstalling everything.
