how to open an E30 ??? HELP

[Luis325]

Is there a "refined way" of opening an E30 early 318i?

I found one thats been sitting for more than 6 yearsand want to take it for parts before they crush it... I wanted to see if theres a way I can open it without having to break a window...

Any suggestions?

Thanks

LOL Its not breaking in...
Its been sitting in the parking lot of a building for more than 6 years and the owner died and the administration of the building want to remove it and they are going to scrap it and crush it.... I want to save it!!!
Its in great condition for parts!

uhhh... isn't that like breaking and entering???

DId they sign it off to your possession?

Grab a rock and smash a window. Fuck it

[Luis325]

NO because the owner died like 5 years ago!!!
Theres no way to get the tittle thats why its a parts car.
Its either me taking it home or them crushing it because its taking up parking space in their building....

Well what do you want off of it? I can't imagine there's anything useful off an early 318i

Instrument cluster, doors, hood, trunk , fenders, windshields, windows..., Etc
spare parts for my track car... Another set of rims, they are in great condition... the sunroof is clean...not rusted.., floor pans...

i have experience with just this situation. my neighbor (4 houses down) has the same car as my wifes (e39 540) and her car needs a few things... set your alarm for maybe 2am and get up, grab your tools and head over to the car quietly so as to not be noticed. take as much as you can in one trip and quickly get the parts back to your house before the cops show up. if all goes well you may or may not want to go back for a second trip. i got all four wheels and HID's out of his car the first time around. left it on cinder blocks in his driveway.

Coyotes, stealing from neighbors, and the occasional advancement of a gay neighbor. My neighborhood has no character whatsoever compared to that.

Dude just call a locksmith and have them open the door for you, it's really not that difficult. If you're lazy, break the window and get over it.

You're assuming it has a decent battery after 6 years, although I guess you could bring a booster pack. I say just have the property management call the locksmith and explain the situation. You pay for the locksmith, everyone's happy.
