How to Change the Mirror Indicator on a BMW F20 1 Series | Dynamic Mirror Indicator Installation
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Hello and welcome back to a tutorial guide on how to replace the mirror indicator on a F20/F21 2011 BMW 1 series. I have also decided I want dynamic mirror indicators, so you’ll be able to see the difference with that too.

Honestly this is great content, the commentary and execution is great. I have no reason to watch this video more than 4 times now but I keep coming back to it. This made me happy.

This is the best KZread comment I’ve ever received, thank you so much! I’m glad this made great viewing pleasure for you! 😆 : )
Grande bro, hai tagliato la parte più difficile nel rimontarlo
This video cracked me up, going at the mirror was making me cringe after seeing couple people break theirs doing it😂 love how honest it was too, I changed my mirror caps and took me way longer than it should. Lots of KZread edit it out but not you! Should be a comedian

Cheers Harry, really appreciate comments like this 😁🤣 I try to be as transparent as possible and it does take me an age to get minor jobs done, as well as a few mistakes 😉 But in doing so, I suppose it makes other people feel less bad about themselves (if they’re as clumsy as me), knowing they can resonate with my videos. Thats the reasoning I do like to leave in some of the bloopers, gives it a more relatable experience 🤣

You did very well to avoid breaking your mirror at least. Well done!

Thank you! That was literally my biggest fear, which is why I never attempted to the other mirror afterwards 😉🤣
Love it Nathan, you so remind me of me whilst you’re tasking…Thank you for the information……and the entertainment. You nearly inspired me to make some KZread Videos myself but alas the amount of expletive censorship would render the Video virtually silent. Keep up the good work!

Thank you very much for the kind words! There were some parts I had to edit out due to very fruity words that were spoken. I just love making content which is supposedly relatable!
Great video Nathan!!

😢Helps me just got mine doing them tomorrow so I no what to expect now cheers 👋
Thanks for the tutorial. I’ve got to say though that I did my first one in 10 minutes and the second about 5 minutes. 😀💥 having two pry tools helps loads to get the mirror off.

I’m glad it helped! That probably is a much more efficient way of doing it, I only had 1 tool and it snapped 🤣
Thanks for the explanation, what type of screwdriver did you use?
Can you do a video to show how to change the fuse for the indicator mirror please? Have changed the bulb, but still now action. Must be the fuse on mine

Where did you buy your lights from? And how much were they? My left side has just broke and I’m thinking I could fix this myself. I like the sweeping ones you got. Looks so good

Hello Natasha, thank you! It really isn’t a hard job, just need a little patience getting out the mirror that’s all! I bought the indicators from Amazon, I have put a link in my description which is the exact same as I have. I can also report mine is still working perfectly fine after 7 months : )
👍👍👍
i just finished doing this to my BMW. trying to take out the mirror is a scary task. But very much worth it in the end :)

What would you do if only 1 is not working? Buy 2 new ones?

I would personally do both, otherwise it would look odd having only 1 indicator that flashes, and one that sweeps.

Yeah it’s easily done, you have to be super careful and not put too much pressure. You ideally need to pry it from two places at once, that way the pressure is distributed evenly
