Why no AC?  Does it not have a compressor or does the AC just not work?

I hope it is still around when I get back in a couple months.....and I too would hit the rust spots with some treatment to keep the rust from getting worse

For Sale / FS: bunch of misc parts

« on: April 20, 2010, 09:25:04 PM »

I have sold my E30 and I'm trying to get this stuff out the garage.  So, pay for shipping plus a little extra and you can have it:

Spare radiator (used): $50 plus shipping
Spare control arms (used) w/ center/tie rod ball joints (needs to be pressed in but will include all the joints (brand new): $75 plus shipping for everything
Overhead computer: $15 plus shipping

I think that is everything, but I'll double check.

General Topics / HVAC blower motor rpm issue and questions >>

« on: January 27, 2009, 02:50:32 PM »

I'm bumping this thread:

Today I was driving when I heard what sounded like my engine fan hitting my engine....so I stopped, pulled over and sure enough, everything was fine.

It turns out that my blower fan makes this horrible vibrating sound, like it is rubbing against something.  This obviously needs to be fixed, so how do I access the fan?  Do I have to remove the dash?!?

Exterior / Fog light question

« on: December 13, 2008, 05:08:15 PM »

I just bought fog lights (on ebay) and they should be direct replacements.  Well, the fog lights fit just fine, look great....only one problem.  The passenger side plug does not plug into the fog light itself.  Why?  Because apparently, the plug connectors for the passenger and driver side orient the same way, but the female recepticles on the fog lights orient the opposite way.  So, the driver side is fine, but not the passenger side.  Guess I should let the vendor know.  I'm thinking about just grinding down the connector to fit rather than hassle with returning it, etc.  What do y'all think?

Interior / Trunk tool kit

Anyone have any pics of their trunk tool kit mounted?  I bought a complete tool kit, just wanted to see it mounted.  Is it two screws and just the strap that holds the kit to the trunk?

My buddy hooked it up....soldered everything, used the red antenna power wire, everything works as it should!

I hated having to lock everything from the trunk all the time....now, no more...best $25 ever spent!

Electrical / Central lock wire colors

I did this yesterday through the trunk.....just remember, green/black-green; green/purple-blue; ground the black wire and tap into the antenna power wire for power....works like a charm!
