maybe im gonna say something stupid, but i had 2 E30 before and I remember the center console and yours looks like from a RHD car. no?

[catuned]

Good catch. It is.. Were just trying out something different. I may or may not use it. Not sure yet.

[Z.Cockburn]

Holy effing-S!

Now that is how you put a E30 back together.

[catuned]

Yep, There is not a bolt that hasnt been touched or replaced. Everything is new; replaced with factory or better components.

A small update.

New molding for the glass and Glass- Installed
Stereo is almost done. Ran all new RC cables and redid a bunch of crap.
All of the locks are getting recoded to match. I don't want to have 4 separate keys. As I got all new locks.
Wiring under the hood is tucked and cleaned up. Lights are all working and functional. We are getting rely close. There is a lot of stuff that is small but takes for ever.



Had a custom Rear speaker panel made by a local guy.. Looks amazing.. Still need to install:





Got some protection too:



And then went over the entire bottom of the car to make sure that every bolt is tight and secure with no issues. Some of these pics are boring:










Still need to do the exhaust!
