Thought I'd get some advice before I call my shop tomorrow. I wanted to go for a night drive tonight and the car wouldn't start. It made some kind of clicking noise when I turned the key and...

Euro Ms mount the plate under the chrome lift lever, since it is skinnier it fits perfectly. US style won't fit in this location so I don't know where you would put it.

What creates the offset differences Z3vsM rear?

Are the trailing arms shorter on the M or are they positioned closer to differential when mounted on the rear crossmember? Or perhaps it is something else?

Has anyone upgraded to M trailing arms...

Should bolt right on if you get M Coupe upper strut mounts etc. The M Coupe geometry is similar to the E36 M3 (front only). Many 3 series E36ers have converted their suspension to M3 specs. The...

Possible to remove seat belt guides?

Just bought some sport seats from a Z3 Roadster and would like to know if it is possible to remove the seat belt guides. I have a Coupe, which does not have the belt guides on the seat.

Cost for new leather/suede on M-Coupe seats?

I'm about to purchase some M-Coupe seats and might consider having them re-done in custom leather or suede. How much would this cost? What materials are the best in terms of wear and tear?
