Glad everyone showed up, great to meet all of you!

And Paul, I have those early model front and rear window filler strips. You might need a new rubber surround, but I dunno, maybe you can make it work without.
The filler strips I have are chrome colored by the way.

I'll have to get those from you sometime, but I think the surrounds are OK.

It was good to meet all of you too, finally, now to make this a more regular thing.

Anybody good at extracting broken bolts? I have a sub frame bolt that needs to come out

Are they stuck? Have you dug out all the foam on the top of the bolts inside the car?

My bad, I meant cross member. I broke one off when I replaced my pan the first time.

Did you try and drop the subframe to change the pan? I've never drilled out a major bolt like that but I would assume with an extractor set it should work just the same.

I did at first for more clearance, then I just loosened the motor mounts and put a jack under the AC compressor

Hey everyone, I currently pieced together the 5 speed swap and looking for someone that is able to do it. Please let me know, my automatic tranny is slowly giving up on me and its driving me crazy. Thanks!

[homegrone30]

How much of the bolt is sticking out?

El Bimmer, all I'm going to say is wrench night. I know most of us can do it, so its up to you on when you want it done.

Eric, its about a thread or two into the frame

And bimmer I've done the swap before its not that bad as long as you have the space and all of the parts.
