    need a pic of the back of a cabrio release handle

    I'm converting my broken auto top to manual, I've put in all the release cables and I believe the handle to release is the same as the door handle but I have 2 cams to put in it but only 1 hole in the rear....cabrio owners can I get a pic of the back of your release handle (the handle in back of the driver's side) or describe to me where the 2 cams from the release cable goes. I can't tell from real oem.

    TIA

      It is the same as the door handel. I used a door handel to repair my cabrios release.

        The two parts you need to connect the cables are:

        Upper bushing: 51251933472 (the upper and lower bushing screw together in the handle)
        Lower bushing: 51251933473
        Covering cap : 51181823474 (you will need 2 of these to secure the cable ends)

        They are available at your local BMW dealer. Should be about $15-20 for all the pieces.

            Good luck. You will like the manual conversion. It works every time.
