Fantastic. Thank you so much Steve So this means that, when installed, the space between the front of the grille assembly and the rest of the dash is 8.83 mm, correct?

Piggy backing onto this thread since it fits under the same title... Could someone please measure how much the speaker grille protrudes from the dash? This would basically be the thickness of the wood plus (if appropriate) the gap between it and the wood dash (in case it doesn't sit completely...

Both are in good company

Sure thing. I'll send you a DM

Is this what you mean?

UPDATE: I finally took the plunge and decided to get my 3D printing setup going. Having a lot of experience in computer modeling from my work in the movie business, it was a fairly easy transition to make. I modeled a version of the prototype described above in the computer and have been...

Thank you for sharing this great feedback and photos Erik!

I have that wheel on my coupe and, for pure driving, I love it. Much more comfortable grip than the thin original wheel

Hi Norm. I'll take the five slot kidney grill. I'll contact you off-line Bo

That is a seriously impressive display. Thanks again!

Some seriously awesome machinery there! Thank you for the great photos @DWMBMW

Great stuff right there. Just for the fun of it, I tried to convert the prices for the 3 liter motor to today's values in USD. I used this site for the method: https://marcuse.faculty.history.ucsb.edu/projects/currency.htm As always, things are not as easy as one would think. There are...

They used to always rank BMW pretty low because of their lack of reliability. And Toyota was always near the top. But times sure seem to have changed. Obviously, design qualities are not considered in their rankings. ”Of the 34 brands CR ranked this year, we’re recommending every model tested...

Terribly sorry for the late reply, Dan. The foot is holding up extremely well. I am really happy with the way it came out. At this point, I would not change a thing. If I had to make more, I would definitely think of doing a 3D printed one. I have tried a few GPS speedo apps a couple of years...

I love the fact that, as for all real Italians, food is an integral part of every activity. Including car restoration

Link to the first mention of this video. It also includes the second part: https://e9coupe.com/forum/threads/second-part-video-csi…these-italians-original-or-invention.45165/

Oh no! Was this already posted? If so, my apologies. Mods, please delete. Thanks Paul

Usually, if they are professionally filmed and edited, it's for a lame tv show of some sort. But this seems both honest and to the point. And of course it includes all the usual horror stories

I remember seeing those electrically activated e-brakes on some show. If you have both an ignition kill switch and a hidden battery disconnect, this would prevent thieves from 1) starting the car and 2) moving it onto a trailer since the e-brake would be locked

Among other insanely cool things, check out the two and four post lifts that fully retract in the floor! Oddly for being in Munich, they are mostly Porsche oriented
