Some pictures - latest mods

[nahodo]

Dear all,

since I did a lot of mods recently, I'd like to share them with you. Enjoy

sat nav BMW Navigation Pro (upgraded from Navigation Business), X3 CID with MP3 capabilities and chrome knobs, black facelift vents


that was fun fitting the sat nav


facelift aircondition control, m-steering wheel with chrome trim




sexy facelift rear



old vs. new


Chromline "Perlglanz" door openers


repairing my left door..





old mods: chromline xenon lights without amber signals, black grill


that was my car 1 year ago when I bought it





some add pics of my "get rid of amber indicators" initiative
i bought halogen front lights and change my xenon parts to the new body with white indicators and chrome inlays









I must say that my DYD skills increased tremendously

Nice mods. I didnt know there were different nav screens?

[nahodo]

you mean different nav screens in terms of colour (grey vs. black) of the body?

[srhutch]

glad you got the nav sorted, what happened with the door

Great set of mods - well done.

Is it just the camera angle that makes the left side of the bootlid look odd, or did you omit to fit the trim piece?

[RichardG]

Some nice mods , but I still prefer the original rear lights especially with the white spots.

[Beedub]

ohhhh i love the stereo chrome ringed knobs... they really look nice, where can i get some??

[nahodo]

hey all,
thanks for your feedback.

- i just read in german forum that the chrome knobs are available separately, will look for the part no
- i just killed my door when driving out of the garage without closing it - no further comments, please
- the trunk lid may look strange on the picture where i combined old and new rear lights because the old bumper was still installed - no chance to fit the new rear light appropriately. anyway, now everything looks OEM

My error on the bumper fitting. Didn't notice that one picture was an interim stage

Good to know the numbers of the radio buttons - thnaks for posting and I'll pick up some of those

For the heater controls di you change out that unit or retrofit buttons to it as they look like the facelift version for the UK?

[Bushido]

My guess is you did the chrome on the steering wheel yourself - where'd you get them pse.

[nahodo]

hehe, no prob

as I stated above, the heater control is also changed to the facelift one - not the knobs only, it can be only obtained as an
entire unit - attach some pictures:

it was described here properly how to fit the chrome trims:

Thanks nahodo - close up shots help. Guess it's just a case of finding athe facelift unit at a reasonable price and the right one. Looks way better with chrome finishers compared to the older style
