mine worked great for 2 weeks. Stopped working for no reason. I will re-check wiring and see what the problem is

I love mine! Still working...

Going to do this today on the M3. There is no antenna in the trunk, but there is an (unused) CD changer mounted in the trunk, might that have a 12v source? Or just use the battery?

just use the battery with an inline fuse

A better solution in my opinion is to install the unit behind the driver side kick panel inside the car. All those wires you need are in a bundle right there, plus you get the advantage of not having the receiver surrounded by steel like in the trunk. I did mine like this 1 or 2 years ago and it has worked perfectly.

ATTN: for anyone who is dumb like me... :)

The system will not work when the trunk lid lock is in a certain position. I had to put the key in and play with it a few times to see where it had to be.

Anyone know where to get spare replacement remotes?

[Mr. Tasty]

[cbouchez]

See page 26. I got it from them and it works just fine.

Does anyone know if this would work for an E34? Maybe the wrong forum but figured someone may know. I just picked up a '92 525i and the door locks all lock and unlock together with the key. Just like the E30.

[cbouchez]

It should.
