Bunch of small projects today...



Rebadged it to 332i (used an e46 323i badge to get the font right).



Bolt on license plate bracket instead of the previous double sided tape system.



New oe rear wiper blade, which should allow it to... function...



Rear OE BMW clear tails



No front plate bumper trim. Need to do some cleaning under it...



Anchor style floor mats. My driving style seems to constantly detach the Velcro style mats that were in it.

Did an extremely hack job intravee install. Didn't bother putting effort into to doing it cleanly yet because I still need to add a bluetooth module, alpine switch, and second iPod/KCA-420i (I want to set it up like the M5, so that if I unlock the car with my key it goes to my seat position, climate settings, mirror position, radio presets, and iPod, while if my wife unlocks it with hers, it goes to all hers).

So, for now, I just threw it all in the hole to make it function in the short term.



Alway amuses me to finally use wiring that's been sitting idle and unused for over a decade.



Jam it in there.



Up and running



And playing music.

Interface is not nearly as intuitive as the nav interface in the M3/M5!

Halogen highs with xenon highs, fogs on with highs, and the alternate 4 way flasher pattern coded on.





ZHP knob off, M3 knob on
