I finally got to installing the mud flaps I've had stored for about 6 or 7 months! Anyway, after doing the front ones and moving to the rear, I find that the flap itself inteferes with the black filler panel of the bumper.
Has anyone had this problem before?? Are the flaps made for the european bumpers??
On another subject, I got the instrument cluster out to try to replace some non-working lights, specifically the "check" and the "D" lights. The check light looked ok and is installed in a base. Also, the shift indicator lights are soldered in a small plastic board. Has anyone replaced these before???

Thanks!!

Hi Jimmy:

Never done that stuff before, but will you post a pic of the mud flaps on your car. I'm thinking about doing the rears only. Now, these are the black rubber factory flaps that have "BMW" embossed on the outer facing portion, right?
