Splice some wires, code some modules, what's so hard about it?

You don't even need to do any coding, it's just wiring. And if you don't do any extra wiring the headlights will work just fine without the angel eyes. I facelifted my 2000 540it and I didn't need to do any coding at all.

face lift headlights anyone?

Zip ties FTW! Or some plastic welding with tools from Harbor Freight. B is for Build did that for his damaged Evora headlights:

The diys make it seem more than a few simple splices. And with as many issues as I've had with my car, I'm not hacking up the wiring

It's really not difficult. Here's the video:



There are even some plug-n-play wiring kits: http://www.bekkers.com/Merchant2/mer...3120025497_499

[BimmrMeUpSnotty]

85 bucks a mile

[BimmrMeUpSnotty]

And it is gonna go nowhere but up, for the rest of that cars life.

[dannyzabolotny]

Eh, if I wanted a Z1 I'd just import one, they can be had for waaaaaay cheaper than that. And who wants a 1500 mile car anyways?

Lmao! Looks like the passenger pooped his pants and overflowed them.

Needs more V8!

Though if you're into inline 6's, the 2002 525it for $1400 is a darn good deal, especially if you wanted to do a 3.0L swap.

That $1400 one looks very similar to my wagon. Looks good indeed, assuming no rust.

Look at that RAKE

Wtf?

Look at that RAKE

Looks like there's something wrong with the rear air suspension, that's like full height. I bet a sensor got tweaked or something like that. As for the engine, it's likely to be chain guides at 192k miles, but those usually don't cause Engine Failsafes...

[WBAD530i]

I thought it was the factory ejector seats option. The forward rake ensures when you smash into an object you are cleanly ejected from the windshield without hitting the steering wheel.

Look at that RAKE

"Pictures are after it was professionally detailed."- What Year?
192k Miles. End of life time guys, but with a little olio di gomito "Grease of the Elbow" it could by a good buy.

[wagons ho]

Sign that the end is near. M5's at pull a part.
Of course it's in California. But it went for less than $500 from whatever auction it was in, cause that's the max pull a part pays.

Eh, my wagon has 193k miles, I'd hardly call it end of life. It's in better shape than most 540i's with 130k miles.

Cool, maybe the M5 interiors will eventually come down in price. I want to get a set of M5 front seats for the touring but everyone seems to want $1000+ for the pair. Clemster is too far away from me, unfortunately.
