    Cabrio Refresh List

    Trying to check with some of you more experienced people to make sure I have my work list straight.

    1991 318iC

    Things already done:
    -PO did all the little shocks (trunk, top lid, seats)
    -PO also fixed the odo gears.
    -Tie rods are decent
    -I've done the CABs/arms/front end links
    -Full cooling system refresh
    -All fluids
    -New Brakes, wheels and tires
    -Steering guibo
    -Drivetrain guibo

    Things pending:
    -Motor and transmission mounts on the way
    -x brace pending install

    Things next:
    -struts / springs / mounts
    -rear bushing refresh
    -rear axle seal
    -tackle the timing seals over the winter (mild leak from that area)

    Is there anything I'm missing? My door windows are out of alignment and rub against the frames, I need to try and adjust them but I've heard the plastic clips can go over time. Are those something I can replace on their own, or are the integral to the regulator?

    I'm pretty unsure about which spring / strut combo to get. The springs especially seem hard to figure out - I'd like a very mild drop since I still have 14s on there, but don't want to compromise the ride. Would the ECS KYB + H&R cup kit be a decent fit with the 318?

    Probably have to do the suspension bushings.

    Windows can be adjusted when you open up the panels. I had that issue, it's not too hard of a fix.

    If you look at the wheel thread for cabrios, people have posted up their specs!
