Greetings everyone,
I am undertaking the challange of swapping a sedan dash into the ti. I aquired a 1996 328 with a clean interior and questionable engine for $500. Ill be swapping it into my 3rd ti, avus blue cali top also with questionable engine. Ill post photos as I progress.

I have to swap the havac unit before putting in the dash.

I have the dash inplace and powered up the ac system. The wiring for 16 button is still in the works, theres quite a bit of wiring and much of it doesnt plug and play with the ti harness. Once the weather cools down ill connect as many sensors and switches possible.
Fitting the center console and near foot well dash pieces required removing some brackets. I simply just cut then out with a dremmel.

Notes
Connecting the OBC to the ti wiring has been quite annoying, still have four more wires to figure out before its fully setup or setup as far as I can go.
To power the system the Ti harness wire color is Violet-yellow and the sedan is violet-white
Glove box light is also slightly different, Violet-white to Violet black.

Thats pretty awesome. Are you swapping the m52 also? Is the blue ti obd1 or obd2?
