Did you end up making any changes?dakotaa wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 8:00 pmNot in up or Ireland and i have an automatic! So ill definitely consider thosewanderer wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 5:16 am 1) Get your steering wheel re-covered. You don't say where you are, but if In the UK or Ireland then I can recommend someone.
2) Automatic? What type of shifter so you have? If the old style then you can change to the newer style from china.
3) Automatic? Then consider a Racechip XLR unit or Flashtool XFP transmission upgrade.
4) Before doing anything else, change the aerial to a stubby aerial.
5) What type of sound / speaker system so you have? An amp upgrade may help. I have a Vibe Audio unit for the E89

Here's some the changes I made to the 23i.
Remus CAT back sport exhaust (off the shelf)
Eibach B12 Pro Kit suspension.
Updated side indicators if pre LCI (colour coding optional)
OEM leather short throw gear knob
Royal steering wheel (Thicker padding and new leather)
Cruise Control (if not fitted)
Colour coded roll hoops
Self leveling wheel centre badges
LED front indicator bulbs
And the hated (by many) stubby aerial
Also de-chromed
