If you take a look at my thread there are some photos that show the inside of both the standard and the ///M mirror from when I swapped mine. The plastic rim on the front prises off allowing the glass to come out exposing the circuit behind which is held in situ by two plastic lugs from memory. http...

I think I'm in love

that car is a real looker

I was never a massive fan of the rarer colours but my tastes seem to of changed. Mid life crisis???

Surely you need the opposite of that don't you? Your wheels need a tool that fits in to the bolt, the one shown would fit my type iii racing but not yours I think

How does this compare sound wise with the Simota? Actually, what is the difference between this and the Simota one (sorry not fully up to speed on these!)? In all honesty I've not turned the engine over since I've swapped it over :oops: having compared the two side by side the difference I would sa...

For sale an induction kit that I had fitted to my Z3 2.0ltr. The only reason I'm selling it is I've fitted a Simota one instead. http://i1216.photobucket.com/albums/dd372/howorthj/P1010315.jpg It fitted my car perfectly (I think it will fit 2.0 through to the 2.8 but please do your own checks). It c...

Glue guns are good for a multitude of tasks, my only problem is sometimes when a lot of glue is required it tends to dry before you've been able to apply it over all the area you want

Looking good Tony

love those wheels

From memory you can dismantle the standard mirror by removing the glass to expose four screws, you're then able to unscrew them which releases the plastic casing from the metal core. You can then swivel it around to gain access to the Allen key heads.

My concern would be if the hole in your tyre was so big that the tyre gunk didn't fill it :( I know from my experience that when my tyre blew it left a large hole. I rang the green flag and they said i would be charged despite being a member for them to come out as the Z was fitted with a spare when...

Put simply no

I'm on my 4th aerial including the OEM stubby and as far as I can see they're all rubbish. Form over function and all that.

('_')Z3

I'd love a red roof for mine but the keeping it clean has stopped me so far.

('_')Z3

Errrrr

what happened to the blue one??

('_')Z3

Congratulations

what happened with the MOT? Did they do it?

('_')Z3

Do you know what they did with exhaust vacuum valve from the OEM exhaust? And how they bypassed it?

('_')Z3

I actually phoned them (DVLA) up and they were really helpful. The car was SORN and I got it MOTd to get it back on the road. In order to get the road tax you need amongst other things the log book which was missing. So I just called them up and explained the situation and paid for the tax over the...

[quote="Alan W"]I don't like the kidney grills, seen this in the flesh and thought they look 'fake' and tacky However... the same car had the lower grill fitted and I thought that looked really good. But I didn't like the 'zun sport' badge so I contacted the supplier who said that they wou...

It's alright

But I don't think I'd have it out of choice (better than I'd imagined though)

I've got the cruise control bits to fit. When you fitted the remote closing roof was there much involved?

If you type 'z3 aerodynamic side grill' in to google images there is a picture of a blue z3 with them part way down the page. But there's not many piCs http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=z3+aerodynamic+side+grill&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=dVb-UuKPLoXDhAe_rIDwDw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAA&a...

thank you very much, again!, I really don't want to sound bigheaded, but it honestly looks six months old, its borderline too nice to actually use. ill have to look for another one to run I think!! :head: :head: :head: I see youre only in lymm, its actually at my parents house in warrington as we s...

She looks MINT

('_')Z3

Lovely looking car

I presume 'isleofthorns' took you up on your offer?

('_')Z3

The wheels look like a good job, no for that kind of money it's a great job

I can sympathise with you, My cars a bit like yours! I'm running out of jobs too

Looking good Tim

I'm just amazed how close you've parked to the other car

They are definitely different, I bought my titanium hardtop from a guy who had an arctic silver car and you can tell the difference. Like you said, arctic is more blue.

Looks great Dale, well worth the effort.

So as some of you will have noticed the Z has a new(ish) purchase which is pretty remarkable considering the Leon situation and the fact that I bought another house last year and have been busy putting an extension on it, new kitchen, bathroom etc etc. But here it is http://i1216.photobucket.com/alb...

('_')Z3

A lovely looking car, congratulations on your purchase. You've said it's a Koni strut brace, but it looks identical to the Strong strut version (which is a great piece of kit).

('_')Z3

Arrived today, who said Christmas was over

it's absolutely perfect although I've still spent the evening polishing it

Thanks for the great service Andy

No mine are on eBay

so presumably there are 4!

I think it's now a toss up between Z4 M roadster and 3.0 Individual - Montreal Blue...I spoke to my mate the BMW mechanic, and he reckons it's not a major job or expense to convert to manual drive... Nissan 350 just doesn't appeal...seems too bulky somehow...maybe I'm just too accustomed to the Z3 ...

Yalden has a fitted a range of 'bling' to his engine bay in some items from the Mirage stainless steel range.

I've fitted the oil filler cap which was about £30-40 but is extremely well made.

I know Shanty sold his last year - was that you Gazza? I was second in line then. These are more money and bit too high for me. I may end up making some replicas. I think Gazza bought shantybeater's spare set? I bought the set from shantybeater that he had fitted to his car before he sold it. Love ...

I'm sure looking at the shape of it it is the airbag sensor. Maybe the seats came from a coupe and the seat belt guides have been added retrospectively.

I have a similar query: M seats and I have the black and white connectors as per your photo. But there is also a round yellow connector that connects at the back of the seat and the wires disappear up the back of the seat. Anyone know what connector is? I have 1 set of seats with and another withou...

('_')Z3

I had the same problem when I fitted my ///M seats, from memory the adaptor was the wrong way round for my purposes. I spent ages trying to source the part numbers for all the bits.
I think the yellow clip is 61138373310
