Finally got around to installing the Alpine switch and second KCA-420i. Now my wife and I each have an iPod in this car, with key memory.



New parts that I'll be putting in as soon as I have the M5 back together (I try to limit myself to one car apart at a time, and I'm replacing all the front end bushings/bearings/ball joints and the steering system on the M5 right now).

M3 steering wheel:






And OE BMW front and side clears:



And doing the M sport (anthracite) headliner/visors/pillars soon, too.

Still haven't found good condition black leather door cards (sedan or touring, as they're the same) or black back touring seat in leather...

Finally got some snow to play in!



And leatheriqued the steering wheel, to get the previous owners cooties off



Decide to break my own "one project at a time" rule, because this is super simple and M5 parts are taking forever to arrive.

M3 steering wheel in. Astounding how much this changes the driving experience for the better.



And OE clears installed. Fits like stock :roll:. They're entirely too clean compared to the rest of the car right now, though.

Also, snow wheels/tires are mounted (have been for a bit):





Thanks to nick to linking me to this!
