        Can I swap the headliner too? I really like to be blinded by cheapass headliner material when I put the windows down at 65mph.

            I'm sure if you tried hard enough you could make it....

                    Driver can be swapped into either an e30 or an e46, sometimes into an American pickup truck...

                    This place is like catholic school, 2/3 of the students smoke weed on a daily basis, but the faculty seems to convince the outside world that drugs are just in the other schools, the resident pot dealer thinks he's cool because he has the originality to call anyone he doesn't like a homosexual, and most of the little children follow him like sheep, then there's the few with brains, you hardly ever hear from them, perhaps don't even know they exist, but they get all the sh!t done.

                        I know shock mounts, and tools sans the tow hook and sp puller....i've heard the early model e36 window & sunroof motors switch over also. Though I haven't confirmed that

                                    E36 Struts can be swapped for bigger brakes and 5 lug conversion. Is it best to do the struts, control arms, and rack all together or can they be done seperately?

                                                        I believe so but you need to change the cover with an E30 one.
