Can anyone tell me what type of head the screw of the rear fog light has?

When I finally drill through the plastic to get access to the screw to remove the old and install the killer new Palella darks, I don't want any surprises.

Torx? Phillips? Regular? Allen?? Other?

Thanks,

Have fun

Thanks,

That was the surprise I was suspecting. Now I have to figure out whether I have that size and if the length of the tool is too long if I do have it for access to the darn thing.

Put on your patience hat, you'll need it.

Are there any directions to do the swap?

I just got the rear set and need to do the swap...

Awesome, I may take you up on that once the weather settles a bit. I just got her detailed and she is sitting in the garage chillen.

Thanks Gangstar!!!!

Rear fog lights are useful in low visibility weather conditions such as dense fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, or smoke. Rear fog lights are a bright glowing orange color to allow cars behind you to see you with sufficient time to avoid a rear end collision. They should not be used in good weather conditions. Rear fog lights are standard on BMWs sold in Germany. Rear fog lights are legal in the US and some other European manufacturers equip US vehicles with them.

This page describes how to add rear fog lights to US and Canadian BMW E39's (528, 540, M5) with a build date prior to March 1999.
