E60 BMW M5 Rear Window Cover Replacement DIY

[@autohowtotidbits9555]

Thanks ! I just did mine in :45 ... my 550 was so bad that there was more metal showing that rubber ... and the space station was complaining about the glare on sunny days!

Thank you Mike. Really like the way you talked us through. Keep it up, esp for E60.

Installation was simple enough after this video.Thank you! 30 minutes job as mention before.

Great video!. Good timing also, as I received the window cover during the week and was ready to replace it today.
The switch is now done with the most time consuming part trying to find a plastic tool to go under the glass. I ended up using a hanger with tape on the end.
A note; on my 2004 E60 the the bottom layer of the original cover was quite soft and almost tarry. Any pieces dropping to the ground melted to the concrete. I did not expect this.

Love this DIY - I had the exact same issue on my E60 M5 and the dealer wanted a fck load of money to change it.

[@m5mike]

thanks.
the front is very similar. but just a single strip across the top.
Yes i did "knead" or roll it into place. no soapy water required.

Super video. Very good demo and explaination.

This video was amazing, thank you for creating it. I'll be replacing my cover this weekend y following your tips. Cheers!

Thanks a lot. Princeton BMW tried hard to convince me that the rubber was glued underneath the glass, that I'd have to remove the glass (5 hrs of dealer labor), and that the glass may break in which case I'd have to pay for a new glass (who knows how many Gs). Wow!

[@surfdude7575]

Thank you so much. Very good quality sound and video. I will be attempting his in the next 2 weeks. Fully confident that it will be a breeze.

Hi Mike, do you know if the same applies to the front windshield? Also, it looked like you kneaded it into the channel/slot Dry, or did you use soapy water? Exc Vid!!!

[@KABULuser]

Thanks a lot this help me. It took me like 30m.....:)

[@m5mike]

@fcmaras Thanks... yes mine was tarry also and that is why I found the goop off useful to clean those tarry spots out of the channel.

[@danielyoo8133]

Where did you buy the parts?

[@JohnLetra]

where do you buy it at?

[@m5mike]

Is is just replacing the "seal" which is really just a cover. The window seal is down a lot deeper. I did not replace the window.

[@twosnjuk]
