89andy · 01-24-2008, 09:08 PM

Alright where do u guys wanna to meet on saturday? Prolly somewhere in richmond i guess..

323d · 01-24-2008, 09:38 PM

landsdowne? but then you need a sheltered place im guessing since your gonna have to remove your bumper and all...

ricky123hk2002 · 01-24-2008, 09:41 PM

just need to take off the wheels (only front two) and fender
and we can install it

alanchan · 01-24-2008, 10:00 PM

I am busy this weekend.
can't do.
I think remove bumper is easier than taking wheels off.

89andy · 01-24-2008, 10:06 PM

Dont know about removing wheels cause I don't have a jack, actually I don't have anything except from a torx I bought to swap my grilles out haha

ricky123hk2002 · 01-24-2008, 10:27 PM

i have torque wrench and the wrench use for removing the wheel nuts
but i dun have a good jack... I just use the AUDI OEM jack when I changing my own wheels~_~ but not safe to use at all-.-
I am waiting the special pricing from CT

ricky123hk2002 · 01-24-2008, 10:27 PM

I think i have everything needed but not the jack

And i need to work on Sat and Sunday too-.- both at night 6:30pm~_~

Alanchan knows how to do it, i think better to ask him for the installation

323d · 01-24-2008, 10:30 PM

i have a michellin jack from canadian tires.. but no jack stand lol..

i can bring it out if you guys need one.

323d · 01-24-2008, 10:32 PM

89andy you should invest on a torque wrench if you don't have one..

canadian tire has it on sale for 39.99 right now.. is a good thing to have since you seem to mod so much haha

89andy · 01-24-2008, 10:39 PM

no I don't mod that much I'm just a poor sfu student =(
but I try to save up the money to do some mods every so often hehe

alanchan · 01-24-2008, 11:57 PM

holy shit, you guys are way to fast on this....
I kept on reading and can't keep up with it
generally, I am busy weekdays school and work.
the only time I can help you guys is during weekend.
but this weekend I am already booked for other things...
sorry.
by the way, any round-end jacks from Canadian tires will not work on a Bimmer.
unless you have an adapter, if you look under nearth the car where you place the jack, you will see a rectangular recess hole, this is where you place the jack.

89andy · 01-25-2008, 12:08 AM

oh damn...need you for this install I have no idea how to install @@ as you can see im anxoius to install these hahaha

BMur · 01-25-2008, 12:15 AM

I only know how to install the hardware but do not know the electrical wiring.

adding after market HID wiring in a Bimmer is very tricky, if you are not careful, you can short the computer.

In the past, I had my wiring done at my friend's place N-motion or Nixon Auto.
they are the expert and they know what wire to tap in to get power.

89andy · 01-25-2008, 12:53 AM

nmotion do hid installations? I thought they only sold the kits~
