    Just the H4s and stock high beams for now since I barely ever use them. I plan on eventually replacing them with H1s, right now I am trying not to spend money on parts not related to the engine swap.

      Well, finally got a rear shelf that I always wanted for this car. Since my car doesn't have any provision for a 3rd brake light and I can't stand the very early "flat" rear speaker shelfs I think this will look right at home.

      This is an e30m3 rear shelf since they don't have a 3rd brake light mounted on the bottom like all e30s.



      premium e30 vs e30m3 shelf.




      Ideally I would of liked one w/o premium speakers from an e30m3 but this will do.. now I don't have to also worry about getting a ticket for a non functioning 3rd brake light :)

        Wow, I thought that the M3 shelf would be different considering it has a different rear window. Very nice.

          They have an additional item behind it, but the main shelf as pictured will fit just fine. I am still cleaning it up and will swap it out tomorrow.

            Installed, fit's perfect.





            I couldn't find the rear belts, but I'll install them later to keep the left/right plastic 'guides' or whatever they are called in place.

                Nate - long time! In the next two weeks :) Engine is done, new everything pretty much fully rebuilt.

                I am missing stock e30 shift linkage for my g260/6 and need to order a new cat (damn things are expensive).



                P.S. head over to FS section, some people were looking for you there :)

                          I have been wondering if it has worked out since it has been a long time.

                            Nope, not in yet. Just installed all the accessories and stuff. Need to install injectors and figure out all the vacuum lines, and starter/engine wiring.

                              Looks like someone was nice enough to hit my car and not leave a note late last night or early today.
