Not to change the subject, but . . .
...what the Hell is the vehicle to the left of the M635 :shock: Guessing maybe a TVR, long time UK car maker, but never very popular (or available) here in the states :-? Thanks :wink: Oh, and beautiful example ///M635 you've spied there, again a color that we never saw in the states on any 6er 8) :...

Saved this procedure . . .
clayjo, I have not tried this procedure (even though my sunroof headliner could use replacement as well ) but it appears to be quite detailed
Tells you to wash your hands about 20 times
Good luck

Interior color . . .
Hey Mark, Good question, as I've always "thought" that the interior color was pearl beige, but I also have a copy of an original window sticker from a very similar build, 4 VIN's away! That's attached, and indicates that the actual factory color is parchment :-k Regarding my actual seats, ...

Seat options . . .
Hey Mark, Since you mention that you have an "early" 6er (hope '82 falls into that catagory...), you may have other options besides 6er seats :-k I went with a set of factory Recaro's from an E21 320 iS, the "S" package had great manual seats that just about bolt right in to the ...

Under the rear seats . . .
Funk, pull one of your rear seats and you'll see that there "should" be plenty of leather that was overlapped, specifically along the center console/arm rest :-k This should also be the original color, or as close as you're gonna get, given that it won't be sun bleached :roll: Nice job Tay...

4 piston calipers up front?
Peter, assuming you have the 4 piston front calipers, you do have to bleed in a specific order :-? Start with the rear caliper that's farthest away from the MC, guessing left rear, again making an assumption here :roll: Then do the right rear, on to the fronts next :shock: The 4 piston calipers shou...

Groovy . . .
Mauser, no grooves underneath the spring pearches
There should be 3 or 5, something like that, depending on if they are HD's or Sports
To adjust the ride height, you move the clip up or down, depending on where you want to go

Mitch, you won't get much of an increase of power or fuel mileage, just by changing the paper element for a K&N panel filter replacement :-? It may "sound" faster after, but that's just due to the increase in noise level from under the hood #-o And FWIW, none of these "single"...
