will 169 Report post Posted July 30, 2006 Anyone out there done a manual to electic sunroof conversion on an e30? I am going to convert my M325i to electric as I am sick of winding. Besides that, the black nob on the end of the handle has now come off and won't stay on. More irritation.. and I dumped 2 manual sunroof cars with good winders just before I moved to make matters worse.. but I still prefer electric anyway.. gismo freak that I am.. What I am trying to find out before I begin is whether I can simply remove the manual winder mechanism and put the electric motor in its place without removing the whole operating mechanism. If I have to dismantle the whole sunroof I will leave it for a sunny day. Fitting the wiring will be a piece of piss, just the other bit that worries me. must be one of the only things I have never attempted on an E30.. well there is always a first time I suppose. and no, I will NOT invite Gus along with his hammer to help...
