    Rear View Mirror Map lights and Auto Dimming not working

    It's a good thing I generally live by two words "s**t happens". I'm typically not so pissed if *I* do something stupid, now if somebody else did it I'd be livid.

    Rear View Mirror Map lights and Auto Dimming not working

    Good news. I fixed the mirror. Bad news. Im not sure it's going to last so Ill order up a new one, at least knowing that the mirror is bad now. More bad news.

    Rear View Mirror Map lights and Auto Dimming not working

    Windrestrictor

    It's a plexiglass panel that goes behind the seats to cut down on the wind blowing around when the roof is down. A friend of mine has a cheapo net one on his Z4 and it makes a pretty big difference.

    Windrestrictor

    Unlighted. It's all wrapped up in the box still. The bastard is installed using 3M VHB tape, the same stuff they use to assemble AIRPLANES keep the siding on SKY SCRAPERS.

    Windrestrictor

    Erm... I can't decide if I want to mount my WindRestrictor or get rid of it... It's not as temporary as the C6 one so as soon as I got it I got cold feet lol :ack: I got it last year when they came out and took it out just long enough to see what it would sort of look like installed.
