New 650i Gran Coupe Owner

Traded in my 2012 650i Coupe for a 2014 650i Gran Coupe Alpinweiss. Beautiful car and awesome to drive. 20 inch wheels are a bit stiffer than the 19 inch in my 12 Coupe. Pics below.

Oh...my...dear...lord. I'm so envious of your M6! I've got a '14 640 GC, and I absolutely love it. But, the M6 GC is definitely my dream car. You are one lucky man.

I'm somewhat new to the 6post, so I'm not the best at searching on here. I was going to look for more exterior/interior shots of your car. Care to share? The Singapore Grey is one of my favorite colors. Gorgeous.

Its interesting, notice that the headlamp switch has two fog light switches to the left - for both front and rear fog lamps. I've never seen one of these for a car made for US.

An easy upgrade. Did it myself this weekend and took 10 mins. Cars are coded plug&play for them. Euro cars likely comes standard; US an option if you order the part. Got mine from ECStuning.com. Also note OP is in S.America (Chile to be exact).

Without damaging anything ( clearly a bit nervous) how did you get the old one off?
Thanks

Very easy. It pops off at the side piece which tucks into the rubber weather strip lining. Then the trim is held in place by one screw on the upper side near the vent. Undue that and then just pop the rest of the trim forward a bit and pull. It will release at three points I believe and just unclip the wire which attaches the light switch to the car. Then unscrew the switch in 4 places remove the old one and reverse your steps. That's it. Should take you only a few mins.
