Installing the new Inno Roof Rack w/Snowboard attachments. Picked it all up for $320 shipped brand new, and it will carry 4 boards w/bindings.

glad that worked! and that parking lot looked like fun - i can't find any parking lots in my area that are empty or remote enough for shenanigans.

This is why I can't live in the city.

Digging this up cause I don't wanna start a build thread... Per Straight6Pwr's suggestion I replaced the FPR which cleared the engine light and it runs great!

My answer to this question would be "You don't want to know." I'm almost to the part of the curve where I stop taking things apart, and start putting them back together again...

...almost...

TJ and I didn't want to break the glovebox.

It was simple as lifting the lever and pushing up on the glove box.  The mechanism is just a little goofy.

No guns, unfortunately. However, if you need lasik, I know a guy.

Apparently stubborn glove box is common in 5er's of this vintage. I also found out why the car is so clean for having 257k. Must have been a Wisconsin to Illinois commuter car.

This weekend I'm getting a new brake light switch and a spare LCM from a guy parting out a couple of 540's.  Also replacing some burned out bulbs around the car.  Thinking about getting the dead pixels fixed in the cluster after the new year.

Also, I'll be cracking open the mystery glove box.  Will post pics of contents.

I also found if I put the key to my chin, I can lock/unlock my car from 80ish yards away.  SICK.

However, I have a complaint about TJ.  HE SELLS CARS WITH BURNED OUT 3RD BRAKE LIGHTS.  Avoid this seller at all costs.
