They're for a 4 dr. Won't tip over for rear seat access in the 6er.
Too bad, they look nice...

Blaine, I keep coming back to the pic of your car. I must say, it's one of the best looking sixes I think I've seen. I'm not much on wings and graphics but on that color it really looks cool! Btw...my daughter is also 17, her first car is an '87 Jag xj6 she's been driving for the past year, and she'...

Hey thanks for the link! Wouldn't have gone there on my own, but glad I did. The ceramic tint sounds interesting, I'll look further.

I don't know how else you will get the answer you are looking for without looking at all the ratings for all the manufacturers and making a chart. In fact, that is now your assignment and I expect the report on my desk by Wednesday. :wink: I have used Llumar film in multiple vehicles, primarily for...

Hi Guys, I've decided to replace the original TRX alloys on my 6 with E39 RC090 alloys, Where have fellow members purchased their rings from and is there a preference for plastic or metal rings? Ash Just used plastic, they worked great and made a huge difference in vibration that I thought was tire...

My problem, I got the shade side fixed the thread worked great thanks. Now my roof clips broke, to old and to hot I guess. Thanks, That's what I've bee waiting for. That sucks... I doubt they make new ones. Time for another ghetto fix. What is wrong with Anthracite ones (#3 in the above link). It s...

Anywho: heat rejection is not necessarily equal to tint darkness. The type of tint and infrared blocking varies. Your tint shop should be able to give you all the pointers you need. That's exactly what I'm talking about. Thing is, there are differing grades of tint shops just as there are differing...

What is the best window film to use to reduce oven temps? There's too many choices, my ADD kicks in and I lose concentration. I would think darker is better, but don't they make different values of radiant heat reflection? And how do they quantify this? I would almost put mirror reflective on to blo...

Thanks guys, necessity is the mother you know.
Had one of these clips on my desk one day after the hooks on my 87 broke make sure to get the larger ones that fit. The small ones are too stressed and won't stay on. These have not come off my 87 in several years.

My 89 had the A/C converted and the STV (voltage regulator?) adjustment messed with. What sort of pressures should I be shooting for on the lines? Wondering if I should go back to R12 after all. It's hot here in Texas! Lots of threads on this in the forums. For sure if you have the choice to go bac...

Slofut - I like that. Clever! You know you can remove the one lever that's pressing against the shade by simply squeezing the lever together toward the center. It will then release from the clamp. Might be a cleaner look. I think I'll try that today. Also, search on "colored binder clips"...

Pics of the speaker in my 87, did these back in the 90's. MB Quart 2 ways with 6 inch Hart subs. (yep 6" subs, 100db eff, flat to 30hz! wish they still made 'em...) http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc123/slofut_photos/BMW%20635%20CSI/IMAG1442_zpsd46e1a31.jpg http://i213.photobucket.com/albums...

My ghetto fix for the sunshade tabs, this is the 88, I've also had them on my 87 for years...

I have a 1997 635CSI with a temperature guage prob as the needle pegs to full hot every time the ignition is switched on. In fact, taking both wires off the sender unit has no effect on the needle. I have received very assistance on this issue in the past advising me it could be the cluster or dama...

Bill Great tip about the 'Thermal Control Products'! I luv this website!! You guys are the Best! Maybe I can wire a piece to the exhaust pipes at the tranny linkage spot? Greg Ps,,In case you didn't know, My gearshift post has been getting super hot lately & this should do the trick. Here are a...

I got a replacement drier for my 88, part GPD 1411471. Fit ok but the hi pressure switch has different threads (about the same size hole but only goes in about 2 threads before locking up). Comparing the plug that came out of the new drier port and the pressure switch, the threads are different. Loo...

Hi Maybe I?m a bit confused. I have a ?87 6er and it appears that the circuit board will not split from its plastic case in order to get to the batteries. Is this the case, and if so, do you resolder the batteries through a slot in the case rather than removing the pcb completely? There are 2 tiny ...

I hope you guys can give me a little advice on my instrument cluster problem. The tach and speedo work well, the temp indicator reads correct sometimes then bounces all over the place, and the fuel guage reads mostly empty but sometimes about 1/4 tank when full of fuel. Does this sound like the batt...

Checked the search function and didn't see any posts on this, so here goes my question: Has anyone repaired or replaced their Engine Heat Shield? The one between the engine compartment and the dash. You can see it when you pop your hood open and look towards the back of the engine bay. Normally som...
