  1. Cheers for the suggestions. Went to Wades, Te Rapa Panel Beats and Prestige for quotes. Wades were the most professional, providing me with a written quote, and a pretty decent price. Went though to them, and was happy with the service. Had to go back for a bit of a cut and polish the week after, but still great service and would probably go back there again for more stuff. Looking much nicer now.
  2. Cheers, I'll take her into Wades on Monday for a quote.
  3. In Hamilton. Hey guys, my FL E30 needs some care.Looking for a place to get my bonnet completely re-painted (it's a different colour).Also need to have the rear skirt beat out, as she's bent out of shape with a few dents.CheersNick Edit: new forums don't seem to have a subtitle.
  4. Wow that was quick, was in the middle of editing that post. So yeah, after a new blower motor if anyone has one that suits.
  5. Cheers guys, managed to get a replacement resistor. Chucked it in, and nothing happened After a bit of fiddling... I managed to get it going for a bit, then it stops Running with the heater on Max, and the Fan on 3, I see the resistor coil heating up, almost the whole coil turns red hot, then it clicks off. -After it cools down, it works again, and does the same thing I'm assuming its some sort of safety feature? Does this mean that my blower motor is drawing too much and needs replacing? EDIT: Found this thread, http://bmwe30network.net/forums/read.php?3,8221 seems my assumption is correct, so I'm after a new blower motor. Current one has BOSCH 0130063031 stamped on it, which makes it BMW Part #64111370930? Anyone got a new one? Thanks
  6. I had it running on 1, no worries there, could barely hear it. No issues on 2 either.
  7. Pulled out the resistor, it was hiding under the dash. Mine looks like this: It was looking a bit worse for wear, so will need a new one. Any recommendations of where to get one? But aside from that, while running the fan on max without the resistor, it was varying in speed. Checked the connectors, and sanded back the terminals, but still doing it. Connected it straight to the battery, did the same thing... Does that mean the motor is on its way out also?
  8. Hey guys In my FL 318i, the blower motor decided to bite it, and started making rubbing whirly noises when spinning. Pulled it out today, gave it a bit of CRC to loosen it up, put it all back in, but doesn't spin on 1 (Spins fine on 2,3,4) Is it my motor? Or might there be an issue with the resistor? Mine looks the same as the one is this thread: http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=816093 Thanks

    Wow, that is terrible. They at least rang me when they couldn't deliver my parcel... I haven't had any issues dealing with them.

  11. Does the iPad app allow you to turn the TV on? That's the one thing I can't do with my current TV.
  12. Nice, I was wondering what it all looked liked when it came together. What's it running to in the lounge?
  13. Thanks for the advice, but pretty keen on a carpet/fabric material.
  14. Hi Guys So I took out my parcel tray from my E30 to get it recovered, took off all the fabric, then realised what a mission it was... So looking to get it covered in Alcantara etc by a professional, so I don't choose the wrong fabric and have it fade in 2 years and have to do it all again. Short story -Where is best to get my parcel tray covered up in Newmarket area? -Or can someone advise where to get some Alcantara/Ultrasuede? Thanks
  15. Hi Guys After a bonnet for my E30 FL. The current one I have is the wrong colour and full of dents. So after a good condition Sterling Silver one, to save myself the hassle of getting my current one bent into shape and painted. I'm based in AKL, so if someone has one in the top of the North Island that would be great. Thanks
  16. Hi There Probably for now it's easiest to just run the Default Vodafone line until you actually buy a dedicated wireless router. I've had to deal with the Vodafone routers at work recently, and I'm pretty sure they can't do what you're wanting them to do. As for a Tomato router, I'd recommend a Asus RT-N16 (I run one ) Unless you know of a dual band 5GHz router that is compatible with Tomato. Though better check first if Tomato actually supports dual band 5GHz... a quick check says that last year it didn't... Good luck
  17. Is this still up for sale mate?
  18. I was amazed. But I did have to laugh at 5:47. Nice find.
  19. On Facebook it's spelt "Claire". Misspelling your fiancée's name isn't a great start
  20. Went back and watched the film. A BMW 633CSI, at least that's what it says on the back >.>
