I have done a few on G05 X5 and G07 X7 which are the same design. I would say F95 X5M will be the same. Unfortunately I can't confirm yet since F95 X5M parts catalog still not available. Even through the one that I subscribed to. But, if it is the same as G05 X5, you will need to unclip the 1/3 of the front part of fender flare, undo 2x one-time use plastic rivet, then you'll have room to access the reflector. G05 X5 and G07 X7 fender flare are just held by clips and locking tabs. So, you can always remove it off the car to have better room to work.

Do you have a part number for the rivets? I installed the body color piece after removing the reflectors and without removing the rivets but it was a pain in the ass and I was able to remove the reflectors successfully but I was so done by that time that I didn't have the patience to install the reflector replacements properly and so now they sit about 5 mm below the fender surface. Not a big deal until I get the car detailed and that is when the wax shows up by making a border around it lol.

Nice. Maybe the ones I bought from IND come with the replacement rivets....guess I’ll find out next week when they arrive.
Interestingly, I just talked to the BMW dealership that I’m buying my F95 from to see if they wouldn’t mind just installing them for me when my car arrives. They said no! They were worried they may accidentally damage the car, which I find kind of ironic since these are OEM and IND recommends that an authorized BMW dealer install them. This install seems like it should be a lay-up for the dealer, especially one you’re buying a car from. Crazy. I talked to BMW repair place in town and they thought it should be no problem. We’ll see. |

I added them but the installer who fitted them on my X5 didnt use them , he said the old ones didn’t break and he just re used those since they were perfectly fine. |
