How did you power it? Did you run a cable down to an auxillary power port or did you tap into rear view mirror wires?
I ran a cable tucked into the headliner down the passenger pillar to about the bottom of the glove box. I removed the bottom panel where the cabin air filter is and ran the wire through there to the 12v cig lighter. Super clean no visible wire aside from the one coming out the headliner.

GTS Tail Lights

Upgraded to GTS tail lights! They look pretty aggressive on my F30 335i, need to do a headlight upgrade to match.

Well, not today, but?

With the help of messygarageBMW, my F32 xDrive has a new charge pipe, FMIC, and high-flow catted down pipe. Next we work on his RWD F30…

I’m not sure exactly, it’s what bmwnavigationupdate.co sent me to retrofit a lifetime FSC to update my maps finally...or something along those lines. Took a long time but finally got it done.



Today, I replaced my engine air filter out of what I thought was an abundance of caution, as I didn’t think the old one looked too bad. But, I didn’t know how old it was, either.





I’m hoping it was new old stock, but it could be factory original looking at the build date. Oh well, it’s new now.

And then a wash.

What brand of coils did you use? I'm leaning towards NGK when the time comes for mine, but they are a good bit more expensive than the other brands on Rock Auto.

I used ngk 97506 silzkbr8d8s.
There were $13 each on FCP two weeks ago.


When you say expensive, do you have V24? 😂 So you need 24 sparks.
