    I love the e36 switches. Glad the e34 I have has them too. Haha. At least one of my cars has them. With auto-up/down to boot! Haha.

    When I did the switches in my old car, I ended up blowing a fuse. But I was literally doing this minutes before I had to go to work and the windows wouldn't go up or down, and I just went to work. I delivered pizzas and it was summer. Knowing you're in Las Cruces, you can imagine how terrible that day was.

      I think I'll switch to one-touch at some point haha. I went through 5 fuses because I couldn't find a definitive guide for the rear windows but I thought I had it figured out. Turned out the window lock switch was pressed....d'oh!

        Haha. I hate being dumb like that. And god knows I have been. From what I remember, the one-touch has been kind of complicated to incorporate in an e30?

                  Parked on the side of the highway. Gave the bitch money for a tire and she started crying about her waterpump not working properly. Tears all over the road ... Women :/

                    Buffed half the car with reasonably good results. Also used SEM Trim paint to shadowline my trim. Came out great. Took about an hour as I did 5 coats with approx. 10 minutes between each coat. Will be doing the door strips and front grille this week/next weekend. Trying to decide whether or not to remove the pinstripe and risk the paint being drastically faded underneath ....

                          Drove it a short way to work, cranking my new x-mas Zeppelin Celebration Day CD, then drove it home, even louder..... a pretty good day for a work day
