I've seen orange/amber metallic on a black car and it was stunning. Not sure how I feel about it on a TiAG car. Might have to see more pics

Ckd YouTube! Not bad but, lubrication is part the procedure and apparently Early failure if not done. Will do it Saturday. Seems I spend more time Fixing my bmw than driving it! True! Good thing I have other Real Cars. JG |

I got mine online Üro brand.
ck YouTube for lubrication needed for gear and tracks. I’ll be doing mine this Saturday. I’ve done this for other cars and not difficult at all! Good luck. |

I bought a combox for $15. Granted it was in a puddle of water and I breathed in mold to get it. It shouldn't have gotten power so it should work after a good cleaning.
Too bad the rear door was smashed in or I could have gotten the farka cables too. Update: The birthplace of AIDS Combox is dissembled and cleaned using alcohol. The outside case was scrubbed down and is now soaking in bleach. I didn't see any burn components so I think it will work. Last edited by Nickco43; 08-15-2018 at 12:09 PM.. |

I had the same idea yesterday, no more swirls or oxidation

Dealing with a tire compressor made me realize there was no 12v socket in the trunk so I decided to add one. I figured that the easiest and cheapest way was to use something like this Noco outlet that connects directly to the battery with its own inline fuse (15A for a compressor).
I connected the positive to the battery and grounded it to the tie down bolt: Cut the trim a bit to give the wiring some clearance and there's enough slack to extend the outlet if necessary: End result looks lame but it works! The Noco outlet is only $7 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/NOCO-GC017-Ad...00G8WLW2Y?th=1 Last edited by The Nightman; 08-20-2018 at 11:02 PM.. |

I've always hated the plastic fake chrome on my sport steering wheel, so I swapped it out for the M-Sport trim. Much better. I was going to just buy an M-Sport/M3 steering wheel for the thicker feel, but I didn't want to give up my heated wheel. Figured this was the best compromise. Super easy and looks great.
