M3 hatch plate light cover has ears similar to the M6 in the vid:


The M3 SEDAN plate light has no ears, as shared here by our good brothah, jet747:


Jet747 further shared:
"You can't pry off the lens on our m3 SEDANs like the m6 in the video. They had to remove the trunk liner on mine to access the bulbs."

Thanks, jet brah!👍☺

I just had the bulbs replaced on my HB over the holidays and the installer just pried the lens off. He had a plastic/rubber tool. Let me know if anyone wants to contact the guy. He does home service in the metro.

Skrry sir. No pic. The ears of the cover are relatively big so it is challenging to pry- but is doable.

Google "plastic prying tools" to know what professionals use and how it looks like.

Just buy the kit from hardware stores, not easily available, but i got mine from hans tools in shang years ago, closed na sya now.

Not only does it make it easy for you to remove light housing, even interior panels are protected from scratches when you pry them off. Useful for the diy er. Some casas do not use theirs kaya be wary if flat screw ang ginagamit to pry off plastic/leather panels gasgas surebol yun.

Very handy, indeed.

Billboard worthy shots courtesy of Da King. On another note, had a flattering motoring experience when a foreign couple at a parking lot praised the sleek profile of our 3s. just goes to show hobo stock goodness still could be a head turner, kudos to kodo! I fear mutated 3s might cause hysteria...:what:

Got used to people looking and checking out the 3 then could not believe the price level is at Civic, Altis, Lancer, etc. =)

When i'm strolling around BGC and a 3 stops to let me pass, i always feel the urge to do thumbs up to the driver when i'm directly in front

just couldn't pull it off as the driver might find it weird.. hehe

the car is certainly a looker, especially at night on yellow light where the sweeping lines are more evident

It would be sad to have an uplifting thumbs up compliment translated "weird"....I don't think that's how indifferent this world has become.
I give it, no matter how it's taken, aRTie sir.

M3smerizing indeed.. though i noticed this phenomenon where on more than one occassion, other motorists are bent on one-upping our M3s: cutting in line to a parking area, racing as though mistaking our posh fuel sippers as sports cars. Or this is noypi motoring status quo? Or have I just gone M3ntal :what:

Ask RingKing...this happens to him all the time....to think, most Mown3rs are mild mannered gents & ladies. Sigh...

Hahaha....I hope you'd get 1 back & a grin everytime, aRTie sir.
