When puttin the new bulb in, don't touch the bulb's glass...coz it'll go bang almost straight away.

Give your main dealer a call...

Could just be a way that BMW are trying to get you to come back to them for everything, even small things like replacement bulbs?!

Usually easy enough to change bulbs but if soldered on then you might be in for main dealer prices!
