plus 1.then you will find the correct colour one , but it will be scruffy or cracked or faded etc . you might as well just get one and paint it ., then it will be a perfect match

you could always put the V12 back into a e32 and run that as they started build those in long wheel base models in november 1986 http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E32/Seda...50iL-M70/NHD/U/

your very lucky ,those plastic pipes look way old , very brown in colour should be a nice black colour. i could have helped you too if needed but looks like you have got it sorted cheers brent BM WORLD -
best way to check is to hook up a amp meter between the battery and the positive termial . and see how many amps it is drawing with door closed etc . then slowly pull one fuse out at a time out and see when it drops down and then you will be able to know what cicuit is drawing more i think sitting there should be less than 100mA?? but also if your battery is 4 years or more old , then it probably getting tied and if the car is not used often enough etc.

not always , most of those 4 spoke types have the same slip ring setup as the later ones.if its 94ish its probably the older type about 95 onwards to 1998 uuse the later type. then in the e46 98 and later e39 e38 models etc they use a different setup again , which would not be easy to swap over

maybe get your battery tested first , a good battery should last months in a e28 with out use . my e28 has one in it and it can sit for a month or more etc also check something that is draining it etc . also check the glovebox light is not on all the time another comon thing to fail in these cars and also the interior light control relay fail . leaves the window switch back lights on all the time etc.
-
buy a new battery , disconect it when not in use . charge it once every few weeks etc check you dont have something draining it faster than waht is should have. comon faults like central locking system relay , alarms , just just an old weak battery easy enough to check these things or just sell the car to me

mainly part 2 and 6 but all the washers need to be there 14 and 11 but also part 6 and check of the is any slop in the shafts where part 10 goes into . you could just do the lot and fit a e36 gearlever while you are at it to shorten the shift up etc http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E28/Seda...ifting_parts-2/
