I did it myself! Just take your time and follow a guide. Tutorials on YouTube are a lifesaver.

I love the idea of making it a DIY project! I think the satisfaction is worth it, not to mention the cost savings.

What videos did you find most helpful, Matthew? I’m feeling a bit lost with where to start.

Check out channels like ‘BimmerTech’ and ‘BMW DIY’. They have step-by-step processes which are super helpful for beginners!

If you decide on professional installation, just be prepared for costs around $300-500 depending on your area and the shop.

Wow, that’s quite a range! Anyone had a really low quote that surprised you?

I got a quote for $200 from a local shop, but they aren’t highly rated, so I’m hesitant… It’s a gamble.

Just remember, sometimes you get what you pay for. Maybe spend a bit more for peace of mind. Safety is key!

True! I’m all for safety, but I also want my car to look sharp. Balancing cost and quality is tricky!

If you can handle the labor, go DIY! Not only is it cheaper, but you also learn a lot about your own car in the process.
