Are these blue or green? :(

[Bimmerfanatik]

I seriously can't tell. Stop laughing.

Will these work? (E36 window switches, of course.)

[PeaveyBassist]

Look green if you ask me and I had to choose. Hard to tell for sure.

My next door neighbor is colorblind... he wore alot of purple shirts when he thought they were brown, his wife gave him the hint a few years later.

Look green to me.
With all the talk of colored bases on the E36 switches I don't know who to believe anymore. I think those will work.

lol...I stick to colors I know for sure - and usually check with people before making any decisions :)

I may give them a shot - I've got nothing to lose, I guess. Picking these up with pigtails and the switches, as well as a sunroof switch (which, as I'm aware, will work for sure) to go with my parts car sunroof switch.

Don't even bother asking - there's none left for sale, there are two board members already getting sets. :)

Those are green, and will not work.

Why don't you just check the part numbers?

Those aren't the ones you are going to give to me, are they?

ps. I sent the spoiler to you on Tuesday morning.

If you want to get picky they look teal. Which is really just blue/green.

Yeah, see, this is what I'm talking about. They're both - so do they work or not? I seriously hate this shit. WHY weren't they all just one god damn color, and all worked, or even two colors, one worked and one didn't.

Woo! Spoiler (hopefully) will help clean up the ass end of my new car. Can you link me to those pics again?

No, those aren't the ones you're getting. I have two four door sets and this set. So that's...6 pairs of switches? I know the sunroof ones will work - those are the ones you're getting. Someone else wants a pair - out of the other 5 pairs, one of them has to work, and if there's anything left, I'm using them ;)

Cool, thanks man! I can't wait to install the switches in my car.

Just for reference, this is what the blue window switches should look like: LARGE blue base


Ohh, and here is the link you wanted to the spoiler pics

OK, THOSE are blue - the ones I posted are green. Now to determine if they'll work or not...for sure.

[Justin B]

Guess the top ones are green. Thats really stupid though, they should be entirely different colors like red and black or something. At least a dark green, or bright annoying lime green that is unmistakable. Not this teal BS.
--Darn posted a minute too late, but yeah..........

Uhh, whats the difference anyway? :?

I was thinking about putting those switches in mine but managed to give my old switches a new lease on life.

I agree. Yellow or something.

Green are one touch AFAIK. Won't work - Jordan explained it best somewhere. Not certain though, so who knows. I've got a set in my parts car I can try.

[erik325i]

Green won't work. The only ones that will work (as far as I know) are the ones with the LARGE white base, and the LARGE blue base.

[golde30]

dude, the difference is the shape. color dont really matter. the switches with the tapered plug facing downwards on the bottom are WRONG. the ones that are one solid rectangle with the wires coming out to the side, are the RITE ones.

Well then why does everyone refer to colors when describing which to use?
