    Front Corner Signal Lights [emoji856]

    So I was driving my M3 today on the highway and the passenger front corner signal light popped out and was swinging by the wires. Unfortunately, the plastic lens banged into the quarter panel and damaged the new paint . I should be able to repair the paint with a touch up kit. Should I buy a new set of corners ? Is there a trick to keeping the corners in the housing ?

    Both of the clips on mine have been broken for a while:/ I just use zip ties

      Zip ties. You might have to drill a hole into the back portion of the corner light to put a zip tie through.

        Make sure the headlight are properly positioned. When so, sliding in the indicators should go faitly easy, without putting too much strain on these plastic guides that seem to break off so many times.

          Curious, are your headlights or corner lights aftermarket? The connecting tabs on many are lacking compared to the OEM parts. Drill a hole in the corner light and zip tie works well.

            Yes, this explains the issue. Looks like the zip tie solution is the way to go. Thanks !
