I believe there is on bfc. That's the one I used when I did my mirror in the e36 . You can use the harness out if any BMW with the auto dimming mirror. All the mirrors are basically the same and they all have the same plug.

Have I been not paying attention at all or did you sneak this one up on us?

You and Chad can be our resident Young & Sleepless Dads.

EDIT: Another girl too? At this point I'm pretty certain the female race is secretly planning to dominate us by 2050. Chad has twins, my boss is in his 40s and has three ranging from 5-12ish, and another co-worker had his 5th girl straight before he finally learned to stop trying for a boy.

I saw this article earlier. I like the effort that went into it. I can imagine that thing being a mobile concert with so many speakers. Just putting them all in the door must have been a challenge...

I don't want to start semantics debate about car customization and personalization. However, there comes a point when there's just too much and you are effectively trolling for "haters". I read the statement written by the shop owner that did the car and his spelling skills left some to be desired. At the end all I took from it was "Someone pays me and I do it and you shouldn't hate us or the car for that" I really really really do hate the car though. Donks have to be the most horrific automotive trend and I've long wished for it to just go away, but people just keep doing it. Then you get frickin' king Midas' Camaro love child abortion and it really just sh!ts all over the whole automotive society. They slapped a whipple supercharger on the ZL1, for what? That engine will grenade something in the driveline pushing those satellites down the road... if that thing is even road legal, which it hopefully isn't. I mean does anyone in this "room" even remotely like this thing for what it is? A giant gold vinyl'd car audio maelstrom? Who could like that? I think everyone who does this is just full of themselves and out to purposely stoke the ire of people like me.

I don't think it's been that much of a secret

And, you boys determine the sex of kids...so you have no one to blame but yourself

I don't think that applies to wrapping your car in shiny gold film........

The Y chromosome is considerably smaller than the X chromosome, thus it is also much lighter.

Sperm cells carrying a Y chromosome are much faster than those carrying the X, so they usually get to the egg first. In many cases, they also trigger all the hostile traps the uterus has, typically, thus the sperm carrying girl-making X chromosomes can swim along a path paved with dead Y-sperm...

Hence all the families with girls and finally one boy, when the parents usually stop trying!



--All an anecdote from my high school biology teacher. She also gave us advice on how to use this knowledge to your advantage, re: post coitus maneuvers to get the outcome you and your partner want. I'll let your imagination figure out possible things to try...

Let me say at 16, it was quite an interesting class!

We're just efficient here. Commuting is a time eater so she was just multi-tasking. I had to drive to Tampa and back today and on the way back I gave everything a nice trim too to make best use of the time.
You should see my bikini line now!

Besides, the Keys aren't really part of Florida now anyway.
