Has anyone upgraded to M3 rear camber arm and retained the headlight leveling function?

I did some research and find some owner custom fab their lower m3 bracket.
However, anyone have use the upper sensor mount, switch the lever to other side? need coding this way?

Please share. Thanks in advance.

Check with Harold at HP Autowerks (vendor on the forum). He has a solution for this upgrade.

Thanks, I know that his rear chamber kit comes with a custom fab bracket but I would like to know how others solve this issue.

The HP custom bracket in question is not required and never was. I know this because I designed the custom bracket in question. I relied on bad inspection info from HP so big mistake on my part. This part should have never been made and is not required. In short, I am now using the OEM M3 brackets. You can thank a member on this forum who sorted it with the link below:

Yo Orb - Fab'd brackets to use 335i leveling device with M3 bracket, otherwise didn't at all mate. Would have to flip the device, which may or may not [likely] have worked, or buy the M3 device. My Ace Hardware kludge working well, however.

What was your solution?

And what is that device anyway? Assumed a pot, but might be an optical encoder....?

Hi Orb, since when turning the sensor's arm 180deg. The anti-clock wise motion became clock-wise (when the spring compress). Will this turn the auto leveling up side down?
Need coding to fix?
I've tried to search very hard in this forum but couldn't find my answer. Really hope you can share your knowledge. Thanks

Hi Calwaterboy. I have check the M3 & 335 leveling sensors and they have identical part number within a same production period. So I bet we can use our old rear sensor with the M3 oem bracket.
