Hi all! At one point in the past, someone was selling repro clear turn signal lens. Have decided they would improve my appearance, as long as they're the slimmer euro version? Can anyone point me in the right direction? TIA

Chrome exhuast tip available to the highest bidder Hallelujah! My driveway is sprouting chrome exhaust tips. Wife says one popped right out of the ground on Thursday morning just after Stan and I left for the Vintage. Bids currently being accepted from anyone needing a pristine, albeit...

Sounds like a plan, Stan!

Luis, No wife this year. My daughter is riding shotgun. See you next week!

Vintage, here we come... Hi Luis, Looking forward to seeing you at the Vintage. What will you be driving? PS. Save me some tape please...

You're right Steve. Thanks! Typical BMW. Real OEM does not show part #8 on 32/18 as available. In fact it doesn't show a part number at all on that diagram. So I assumed it was NLA. Turns out 2002's use the same cancelling cam; when you put the 2002 part number into the search box, it reveals...

Hunt for #8 thingy Thanks everyone. That was a great explanation, provided very rapidly. The good news is that now I know why the signals don't cancel. The next task is to find the #8 thingy that I'm missing and that apparently is NLA. Anyone have one they can spare? I love to have the new...

Hi all! Bought a Nardi steering wheel on fleabay and an E9 hub from a forum member to replace a Momo wheel. Splines fit, horn works fine, but turn signals don't cancel. Noticed that the Momo wheel has a tab at the end of the hub, which I assume is the canceller. But it is integral to the Momo...

I've got plenty of BMW chops (have owned at least two BMWs continuously since my first 2002 in 1969; currently have 5 in the stable) and have 40+ years of loyalty to the marque. But the Glas GT vs. the ASA 1000 is no contest. Glas was a going-broke niche player working on a shoestring, while the...

E9's at the Vintage There are really 10 coming. I signed up, but the site listed my tii rather than the coupe in the entrants' list. Couldn't figure out how to change it. But I'll be couping this year.

Hi all, Anyone interested in a four-spoke wooden Momo wheel as shown below? It's 380mm and comes with correct E9 hub and horn button. Wood and spokes in pretty good condition. (I can send higher resolution photos but can't attach them here.) I prefer the feel of leather so this one is now...

nardi hub PM sent

When I bought my '73 CS, it had a wooden Momo Alpina wheel (going up for sale once I've resolved this issue). I prefer prefer the feel of leather, especially on longer trips (i.e. Will be taking the coupe from Philadelphia to the Vintage in May), so I found a nice leather Nardi with a E9 hub and...

Really? Who tries to sell a car without providing any pics? Oh, wait... a seller with a zero feedback rating. Caveat emptor!

Weird VIN Can anyone explain that VIN? I assume the last 7 numbers are correct. But what's the prefix all about?

2002's used the same seat material, and there is a semi-constant stream of '02 seats for sale. Buy the seats, cannibalize the vinyl. I covered an entire set of E21 recaros with original, salvaged vinyl. The catch is that lots of the material is stiff and has permanent memory from the frame...

Just installed a set of Al's seatbelts to replace the clunky and uncomfortable early, two-piece (i.e. separate lap and shoulder) belts that came with my '73 3.0 CS. They attach to the original mounting points, function perfectly, fit way more comfortably than the originals and look like they...

Removing '02 seat seat covers I had no trouble (slowly and carefully) removing the seat covers safely from my tii in order to replace the horsehair pads, other than the scarring on my fingers and hands caused by the incredibly sharp hog rings. The hard part is putting those rings back through...

Self-inflicted wounds are always the worst! Sorry to see those pictures, Andrew... Poor Athena!

No problems from London In London on vacation. Working fine on my laptop. Only problem is that I'm 3,700 miles from my coupe.
