Mods and work since i purchased the car.

Recommended Posts

Mods please move this if its in the wrong section.

Ok so i have had mar car now for around the 18 month mark and i am just about finished doing the mods i wanted.

just thought i would throw up a list of everything i can think i have done so far.

Vechicle serviced (just basic oil change etc)

4 x new tyres

4 x Rotors and pads and set of parking shoes

Water-pump, Fan, Centrifugal clutch, hyd tensioner and all belts. (payed foy by insurance)

Intergrated garage door opener into car so all you have to do now is push the rear fog light switch to open close the door.

New armrest and had it recovered from a nice cover i got from the uk.

Replaced oem stereo with one that lights up the same colour as the interior of the beemer but has full ipod connection as well as usb and s/d card slots. I use the usb stick the most think i have around 4000 songs on there.

Replaced 2 x cluster lights for the gauges.

Replaced Mirco filter and had a/c checked but was already full and in tiptop shape

Installed set of snap in chrome cluster rings that i got from the uk.

Full 11 button upgrade to the 18 button one with all new new functions working.

Installed foot well lights that run off standard interior lights , Ie dim after door is shut or turn them on when you tunr the dome light on.

Replaced all the orange indicators all round with nice clear ones, (made a much needed difference to the car).

Repaired my climate control unit.

Replaced all door hand rubber seals (you know though those ones that always seem cracked as hell).

Had front door cards recovered so now thay look spot on. (just the rears to do now)

Replaced drivers side door regulator and window clips as well as window seal.

Installed 4 new floor mats (Thanks Brent)

Replaced left rear door handle and mech as the lever inside the door snapped (thanks to ray for this part).

Hard wired radar detector into sun roof so no unsightly cords everywhere.

Replaced brake light switch to stop the annoying brake circuit contol error comming up.

Today i installed a new drivers side door seal.

What does the new year bring, Just a couple of things still left to do.

I have the solid outerball joints and m3 CAB's to go in first thing next year.

I love my car to bits, I have always loved the style of the e36's and i am going to be sticking to it for quite some time to come.

To do.

Install cup holder when Ray comes across one for me.

full level 1 service (check only and go from there).

and from then who knows.

Nice work, Nothing like a car that has been well maintained and everything works.

Garage Door opener sounds pretty sweet!

Lack of cup holder is my biggest annoyance with my car.

Mine too, I'm not a fan of the non-OEM mods... some just look a bit tacky for my liking.

Allthough I do rember seeing someone fit an E46 console in his E30, looked pretty mint.
