    What are all the "Euro" touches on a 1991 318is?

    I used to have 911s and knew what all the little details were to make a US car look like a euro. If someone went over to Germany in 1991 and purchased a 318is, what would it have looked like? I've already purchased (and still need to fix up & install) a set of Euro smileys, and a set of Euro grills. I understand the bumper trim is different (no side markers). Also want a set of Euroweaves when budget allows. Is there anything else?

    That's pretty much it on the outside. Maybe a euro plate filler too.

        Check panel with German Instead of English, analog clock instead of obc, gauge cluster in metric. Rear fog light switch and wiring (it is discussed somewhere on r3v but is a pain)

            No check panel so that part's taken care of. And it already has an analog clock. I don't think I'll swap to the metric gauges, although the odometer is broken so I have to take things apart to fix that anyways.... Hmmmm...

                          beat me to it.
                          but i mean, he said euro in general, so he could still do it.
                          this is the reason i prefer lhd though.
