I got new xenon bulbs for my 98 M3. I know this sounds bad but i cant figure out how to install. I have ZKW's . I know u have to take off the plastic piece off the back of the headlight. Then unscrew a rubber piece. But theres one problem, there's no rubber piece on either one of my headlights. Im stuck, any tips will help, thanks.

Tried again. Failed. -
You'll need to drill a large hole in the back cover to stick the bulb through. The blub slides into to the metal part, into the projector and is held in via clips.
I would get a pic of mine, but my cars at the dealer right now.Comment

I dont really want to take a chance without seeing how to do it. If u can post pics whenever u get ur car back, i'd really appreciate it. Thanks for the help.Comment

you're talking about the HID capsules, right? I just cut a hole in the middle of the plastic beam covers, ran the wires to the ballast, locked the HID capsule with the ZKW clips - then seated the rubber grommet to the center hole. HTHComment

You are talking about HIDs, not just new light bulbs right?
If so, here is my install thread complete with pics:
