Under the bonnet....Remove the plastic trim and other stuff from the top of the fire wall. It will all become clear. It should lift out in one unit. I saw a chap in a scrapyard do it in 10 minutes. From a car with no engine in, mind. ------------- Paul DH 1994 E38 "Proud owner of a "3/4 engined E37.9 that's almost a real car with real paint...WITH 6 WASHER JETS!" 1989 520i (E34) Gone 1988 320i Coupe (E30) Gone 1995 520 Estate (E34) (Wife) 1992 320i SE OBC (E36) (Wife) Gone 1988 320i Saloon (E30) (Wife) Gone |

Even the Haynes <spit> manual is quite easy to follow for this removal. ------------- Paul DH 1994 E38 "Proud owner of a "3/4 engined E37.9 that's almost a real car with real paint...WITH 6 WASHER JETS!" 1989 520i (E34) Gone 1988 320i Coupe (E30) Gone 1995 520 Estate (E34) (Wife) 1992 320i SE OBC (E36) (Wife) Gone 1988 320i Saloon (E30) (Wife) Gone |
