Hey man, I just bumped in to your channel. I'm very grateful for all of your how to videos on your e34 because I want to buy one as my first car and I plan to work on it my self. So I hop your videos will help me do that. Thanks :)
Superb video! You made it sound so easy because you are a great communicator. Learned a lot from you! More videos please! If you visit Adelaide will shout you a Coopers Pale! Let me know.
Dude your the best I'm not sure how you know but somehow right when I'm going to do something to my e34 you make the tutorial video the day before I do it every single time that you've put a video up I'm not sure how you do it man
you are supposed to push down those kidney grill clips from above. Theres a hole at each side of headlights from the top, you need a pretty long screwdriver to push them down.
Nice video and explanations mate !! What about the new replacement quality ? Were they DEPO ? I'm looking to upgrade, and OEMs are too expensive or too bad shape, and HELLA and other known brands are quite expensive as well. I'm about to buy some Diedrichs, a DEPO manufacturer, and I'm worried about the quality. Thanks in advance.
Does that apply to the 1989 535I, cause that car looks like a 540, which is similar, also do you have a video on what to do if the front doors don*t open, somebody told me it could be the weatherstripping that somehow has created this problem, please if you can help me, all the doors are open they are not locked.
I just did this on my US spec '91 525i but I upgraded to projector lights from the stock uglies, big difference in light output. I do wish they had those adjustable headlights here...
Cool step by step how to! One quick question, I have a car just like this and every time I drive in the night I get the feeling my headlights are a bit too weak, do glass headlights also deteriorate? If so, does replacing them with Euro Smileys help? Thanks!
G'day mate - really great video tutorial for we RHD 540 owners looking to work on our own cars. You mention that the adjuster motor snapped off as a common problem - how does this happen? Is the part just under-engineered?
Mate, is there a way you could provide me with your music links please? The one beginning at 0:44 is Hanz the Manz - Learn but it seems YT has deleted it and I wasn't able to find it anywhere else. BIG THANKS!
I suggest removing the bumper cover too when doing this (Really easy). Cause if you are not careful you can scratch the top of the bumper with the grill when removing it
Hah, I'm lucky I'm in Europe so I don't have to go through this hassle. Though I do wanna swap my euros out for the Hella Dark replicas with crosses in the high beams.
How the hell do i get the trim off when the damn bolts are stripped. I really need help doin my left side low beams before i lose it and destroy somthin.
An awesome car to drive! Very comfortable but somewhat sporty at the same time, especially for such an old luxury sedan. Beautiful V8 sound and plenty of power! The ultimate sleeper. You can see it in my channel. I sold it more than a year ago. :(
I lost it when you said remove the subframe. Lol. Great vid.
dang i wish you would start making more videos they are super useful! i just got an 89 e34 and all of your vids have been really helpful so far
Hey, thanks for the compliment. I've been pretty slack with videos. I manual swapped my 540 and never finished the vid! Hope your e34 is going strong.
Hi there, I'm David from Belgium 🇧🇪. Great and helpful vids. Keep up the good work man. Sincerely appreciate, David

This video is gold! I've always thought this job is pita but doesnt really look that bad. I have to refinish my Black Hella headlights. :)
+Elmo Nevalainen It's not bad at all! The hardest part is that kidney grille, you just have to take your time and be gentle so it doesn't break.
Great vid thanks for the help
Thanks for the video. Helped a lot.
Nice video. What h1 LED or WHITE bulbs can this Euro smiley headlights use? for a more bright modern look? thanks
Hey. There's a channel above the headlight for pushing down on this impossible to reach clips. 👍
Way you stopped your magical video we witnessed your help as to mach
0:43 "and figure out what plastic part broke off"
LMAOOOOOO
And yes I just noticed this
you are supposed to push down those kidney grill clips from above. Theres a hole at each side of headlights from the top, you need a pretty long screwdriver to push them down.
Any pics / videos of this? Thanks.
excellent. Thanks
Wow keep up the great videos, please could you do a coolant flush? Thanks
What kind of front lip do you have I really like that one
Are the left and right inside high beam lamps/glass the same part or are they mirror image parts?

where do you recommend buying euro smiley's?

Wow your cars in really nice condition. I have an e34 and my wipers rubbing on the bonnet, any idea how to fix? Apparently the bushing has worn
This seems to be a common occurrence, my 91 e34 passenger wiper does the same.
what is the difference between the smileys and the US spec lights?? Just looks?
G'day mate - really great video tutorial for we RHD 540 owners looking to work on our own cars. You mention that the adjuster motor snapped off as a common problem - how does this happen? Is the part just under-engineered?

Dumb question but how tf do you pull the bulb out im trying to change it but its like stuck or idk if im doing it wrong
I suggest removing the bumper cover too when doing this (Really easy). Cause if you are not careful you can scratch the top of the bumper with the grill when removing it
Also, I subbed. Liking your videos as I bring my 540 back to life
Where can I buy BMW e 34 parts from India was looking for a legit site if u can help me please ?! Btw very interesting videos
Hah, I'm lucky I'm in Europe so I don't have to go through this hassle. Though I do wanna swap my euros out for the Hella Dark replicas with crosses in the high beams.
thx bro
Good job
+That One Guy Cheers
Shocked me with the subframe joke😂
Good Looking
How the hell do i get the trim off when the damn bolts are stripped. I really need help doin my left side low beams before i lose it and destroy somthin.
+Dylan Earley Which bolts are stripped? The plastic ones? You could try drilling them out and replacing with similar bolts.
never heard that term. what the heck are euro smileys?? beside the crack in the glass I cant spot the difference?
I may be a dumb question but how does one remove the lens.
The lens can't remove, it's one peace each head light. In best case you can replace each head light, bud this also tricky.
1994clue thanks appreciate it
@@SgtIndustrial You're welcome, greetings from Germany!
tnx
On the E32 the grill in the center just pops out
God I miss my 540i E34. :(
An awesome car to drive! Very comfortable but somewhat sporty at the same time, especially for such an old luxury sedan. Beautiful V8 sound and plenty of power! The ultimate sleeper.
You can see it in my channel. I sold it more than a year ago. :(
hey do you know how fucking annoying the passanger side is its fucking bullshit everything is on the way and my bolts are rusted so its more hell
+Toivo Lavikka Hahaha, yep it can be bit tight, that's for sure.
