Replaced my yellowish OEM footwell lights (4-Pin) with aftermarket LEDs.

Fresh and fancy cap will hopefully keep my windshield fluid from disappearing! You can see all the deposits on the fenders and firewall where it has been splashing out over the last few months.

There's a gasket in it that fails over time and lets all the fluid out. There was so much leaking/splashing out I thought I had a coolant leak! But diagnosed it to the washer reservoir and eventually the cap.
Seems like it's a typical problem with F10s. A good investment!

Got new steering wheel with paddles. This one is heated also, of course.




Did not want spend the money on lci version.
Edit: paddles now coded and they work nicely. Bit more fun when driving manual mode.

Rear differential bushing is starting to crack. Ok, it's cracked. So I went ahead and put in an insert to keep it going a while longer. Full story: https://f10.5post.com/forums/showthr...5#post29833685

Painted my calipers white on my 2013 535i with G2 paint. Not the best job, but saved a ton of money.
