yep I would/did. If I'm not mistaken the main fm antenna is actually behind the rear bumper.

Thanks Ed! I fear the chances of that are vanishingly rare these days, though I did make good use of my months tax (first time in a year!) and sneaked in two great days. :) I think I'll just bite the bullet with either, 2cm not much difference, 7/9 on the other hand definitely is. I like look...

At the risk of being wrong again :roll: I'm fairly certain the torque speculation for the half shaft bolts is 100nm not 80.

You're welcome to these 2 if you like. Probably a couple of meters and 2 connectors.

TIS states 81NM for these bolts on the E86 platform

OE rubber mats you say... Check for sale page soon if you're interested, I will put these up.

No, the e85/6 uses a 'saddle' tank, so the weight is split l/r. The battery (and a bunch of other things) on the other hand is on the 'wrong' side for rhd cars :x

If I'm not mistaken the bolt in cage is the Weichers one, which is nice as it is designed to work with the existing trim but is compromised for that very reason. It's great for proper harness mounting but does not tie in with strut towers so isn't any use for strengthening that area. Weichers...

I've had the same setup for a similar period of time. Unfortunately a couple of years ago I found this, so I'd say the plates are not a catch all sadly (at least with solid top mounts).

I had a dig around today and found one I hadn't used. You're welcome to it if you like?

From memory it was some insert badges (i.e. no chrome round the outside) that had 3m tape. No prongs. I've had a look, I can't find the order I'm afraid, it was quite a few years ago but I have a feeling they were for the rear coupe boot lock badge. I don't have nay other photos but you can see...

Good to see it back ed :) Feel like I started the thread at a time when it seemed a bit taboo around here to track a z4 for some reason, roll on a few years and judging by the number of interesting threads that's changed :thumbsup: Big congratulations on your 2nd!! Shame to conflict but the...

I used, I think it was, an adhesive badge insert for a side indicator project I had left over.

The airbox is essential, whether it makes more power or not you'll care not I guarantee! I think I'm right in saying that I am the only car I know of running the goke csl airbox made for the z4m :tumbleweed: The difference to others is that it locates directly to the Z4 air intake and seals on...
