M M 250 Report post Posted December 26, 2015 Did the e36 upgrade so no longer need these. All worked before being removed. 2 have the arrows worn off. 4 available, $7 each or $20 for the lot. Will have another 2 when I do the back door switches as well. $30 if you want all 6. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted December 27, 2015 e28 models also came in illuminated switches probably only in 535i etc. simple swap out though . e36 switches are nicer to use though , but they do burn out more often Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not hard to find more E36 switches if they do go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not hard to find more E36 switches if they do go. only the early e36 models use those high current switches and the stocks are starting to dry up as the contacts do burn out. all the later e36 models use soft contacts and relay boxes etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
