  1. He has some . Everybody recommends bmworkshop but the last job I got quoted I managed to get done about one tenth of the price.....
  2. I have about zero patience no I intend to take it to a local mechanic who charges a very reasonable rate.
  3. yeah sorry that's what I was meaning the full unit, I don't want to spend the time Imucking around I would probably break it if I try to do the other way. Cheers for your help.?
  4. The BMW part number that is ? Cheers
  5. Cheers man you don't happen to know the part number for it to you or the code for the bulb?
  6. Cheers yeah I see some give an error , I guess I will have to pull mine out and see what they are and what match's them. Or just bite the bullet and get them from the stealership?
  7. Yeah I phoned up the dealership or Auckland BMW and they quoted 78 + gst just seems Crazy For One bulb but maybe that's what I'll have to pay if I could get recommended aftermarket? I believe you get a set for about that but yeah I'll see what people recommend thanks.
  8. hi there I'm just wondering if anybody knows the part number for my car a faceleft e60 550i for the driver side angel eye bulb I haven't taken it out yet I tried to remove the h9 bulb but it is clearly not that one that's giving me the issues just the Rings themselves stop working. Any help would be good, its a super tight space to work in . Thanks
  9. Shame those sprint booster modules are so expensive I wonder what it would cost to get the computer remapped I'd assume it would be even more. I don't think my 550i has a sport mode can shift it to manually of course well tiptronic.
  10. Yeah not looking to break the bank . Car goes well enough I guess . Will just do the wheels and enjoy not having aftermarket headaches. I do want to get the Bluetooth going as well has got the NZ SatNav installed. But no Bluetooth . Cheers
  11. Once a modifier always a modifier.. I hear that there's not much point even changing the air intake ?? Lol I should just do the wheels and be happy I guess.
  12. I spoke to Gavin at high velocity and he doesn't do a remap for this particular car hasn't had enough demand and didn't think they would be good gains to be had, suppose he might say that since he doesn't offer that service but yeah I will leave well enough alone.
  13. Hi just wondering has anybody remapped there 550i naturally aspirated V8 I know often people are remapping the turbo cars is it worthwhile in N/A bmw ? Are there any reliability issues etc? I know they often has saying at 10 to 15 horsepower increase + improve fuel economy but does anybody have any experience . Thanks. I have an Arqray axle back exhaust not that it would make much difference.
  14. Lock nuts . They come with a narrow socket local mag shop will be able to help you out. Personally I don't recommend alloy lugs at all. Don't go there .
  15. After reading the article now that I'm at home it seems like the specs that I have above are probably about right maybe I need it plus 15 OFFSET on the front as it seems that a lot of them are using a 5 mil spacer.
  16. No that's a typo that was just part of where I stole the specs from he had 20 inch mags I didn't adjust the tires. Ok thanks for that and yeah I'm still looking for somebody who's got experience I know they can hit the brakes and all sorts of things being custom made Wheels I have to get it exactly right cheers
  17. Hi thanks for the reply I don't see where that takes into account the difference between the fender clearance and brakes etc that's just a generic tool is definitely not what I'm looking for.
  18. 19x9F+19 245-30-20 FALKEN and 19x10.5R+25 285-25-20 I've been looking around online and cannot get a good answer to this question I want to try and get is larger offset and width wheels as possible without rolling the Factory guards. Looking to get some custom made Wheels so I need to get the specs right any help would be appreciated thanks.
