      It is a big pain in the Arse. I have a local guy who did the fabric. Got it all sewn up and we installed it. I can put you in touch with him and he can do the same for you. For the E34's it's different so the install is easier.

      ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
      On another note we are having to swap the complete wiring harness as the one in the car for what ever reason keeps blowing fuses and at one point was starting to smoke. I am not taking any chances. Installed a late model harness from a parts car known good.

        Yeah, I've pulled one out of my 89 325i I had and actually I think I still have it somewhere so maybe your guy could use it to trace a new one out or something. I'll pm you for details. I want a black/dark headliner in mine as well vs th stock tan color.

          I always thought the black headliner was way nicer then the tan. But then again I like black interiors.. lol

              Thank you!

              Ok so as I said the wiring has been giving us issues. We ripped the entire harness out and have been pulling another one out of our parts car. Well lets just say if you dont want to cut anything it's a 2 day job just to pull it out. Then install it back in at least another day. Not fun but have to be done.

              Parts Car:




              Our Car:



              One nice thing we did get done is test fit the Glass Sunroof. It is super nice. Removed it and painted the trim on it to match the rest of the car.
              The slider portion also went to be redone in the same suede material as the rest of the headliner.

                        Got this one a while ago from east coast.. I treated some minor surface rust. Redoing the cover on it and painted the trim. Basically it.
