      not to be a hater but,

      I liked the before better, though it is your taste you need to satisify.

        Now you just need a better steering wheel. Looks good though!

          True! Its not really the end of my interior project. There is still LOTS of work to do.

          I want everyone's opinion on this.

          Should i go tech 1 or tech 2 wheel? I like the looks of tech 2 better

            the tech 2 may look better, but it's also about 8x more expensive.

              I liked what you had before too, but this also looks nice. However, the worst thing you did was install that hideous radio-its sticks out like a sore thumb! There are other aftermarket radio options that would integrate better with the dash.

              BTW-love the old school shift knob-I have one of those myself.

                      looks good, except for the hideous stereo. You should get a 350mm Momo Monte Carlo steering wheel and an e36 cd43 stereo

                            i know the stereo doesnt fit but its better than the star trek alpine stereos i always see. at least mine is black. but my oldinterior was sold a long time ago. where was everyone when i had them for sale in the forum? i had to resort to ebay becausenobody wanted them! i made 10 dollars because of shipping underestimate!

                              Your radio doesn't look black-in the pics it looks brown. There are some Alpine's that actually look very good in the E30 dash-one of them is the CDA-9835, which is an older discontinued model that has a ton of features and superb sound quality, plus switchable amber ilumination. i have one in my E30 M3 and couldn't be happier. It doesn't protrude out of the dash nearly as much as what you have plus it looks at 'home' in the E30.
