I'd show before and after pics, but I haven't taken the time to figure out how to do that yet.

More info on this, please.

He means he updated his map by using a pirated/bootlegged version available on the interwebs.
There are threads here about it.

Cheers!

Nice! I just did some of mine. All I have left to do is the Carpet (black) &
some M-Sport front seats for a E93.

Found out my oil return line from the turbo to the oil pan is leaking

F**k getting a fix-it ticket) and installed them. 2 hours later I still can't feel my fingertips trying to get that damned retaining clip out.

After changing both lights, now the brand new left light of the brand new bulb completely burns out with no warning. Just great; glad I saved the old bulb while I'm getting an exchange though.

Sorry, but I didn't take any pics, but I will when I can (maybe this weekend). Also, I didn't do the dashboard so no tips on that, but everything is so easy to do. It took me like 2-3 hours.

bloppitybloop · 01-28-2016, 09:25 PM

Cleaned and conditioned my new m3 steering wheel I'l be instaling tomorrow.
