            thanx for the comments everyone. yes the interior is what sold me on the car too. The leather was almost as clean as my '05 BMW.

                    remember, just swap pedals - don't even bother trying to remove the airbag pedal box.

                      yeah i was searching all yesterday about the swap...trying to educate myself on it. I came across a thread where someone swapped that box and had a hell of a time doing so...for nothing. Luckily a couple of the guys helping me out tomorrow have done the swap, so I'm hoping it all goes smoothly =)

                          Thanks so much for ur help Jermaine and joel...e30 gods in my eyes.....and know these cars better than anyone I kno...the swap is complete and drives sweet! Car runs even smoother than what I expected. Started at 11am....and w an hr break for lunch.....it was on the rd by 8:30-9. Feels like it was born a 5-speed.

                              picked these up Saturday....one low beam needed repair, since one of the tabs broke. I sourced a donor bracket projector, and swapped the glass & projector over since the glass was in great shape.
