Nice car! I had a DS ix also. And... still have a front drive shaft with good splines. I'll try to find some pictures of it if you're interested

Spent the day washing and cleaning the car. Next week I'm hoping to clean some spots out of the carpet and wax it. I started a list of all the things I'm going to have to get, but right now I'm just enjoying driving it around.

Not much has changed lately, just trying to get a lot of little things sorted out before winter comes. A few weeks ago I thoroughly washed, clay barred, polished, and put 2 coats of wax on the car. The before/after transformation of the paint was amazing, a lot of the shine came back and the paint is amazingly smooth. I spend nearly 5 hours on everything but it was well worth the effort. Its difficult to show in pictures but here are some anyway, not too bad for the original paint. 

I also came across some E36s is a scrapyard here last week and decided to try the E36 window switch conversion. It ended up costing me about $15 in switches and bezels and took about an hour to solder. I'm pretty happy with how they look in the car and they're so much better to use than the factory ones.

LIke the window switches! Might have to do that myself. Did you get a front drive shaft? Didn't see an mention of it yet.

[bfraser30]

Yeah I did. I ended up picking up a driveshaft, transmission, and transfer case with just over 100k on them, all for $200  the driveshaft is in now and I will be swapping in the transfer case and transmission as soon as I get a break from school.
