Does a 1997 M3 come with...

[Julz69]

Is it possible for a 1997 M3 to come with a cassette player? Sorry if its a dumb question. Also is it common for you M3 owners to have a dimming dash problem and a choppy computer screen? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks everyone,
Julian

Dimming dash or fading LCD? And yes, a casstte player is more then possible (And so is a 10-disc trunk mounted CD changer).

looks like LCD is fading were speedometer is and where computer is in the center console the words are all choppy. Thanks for your reply!

The dim odometer is a very easy fix. Just replace the bulb that burned out. That was actually the first fix on my car 1 day after I bought it.

hahah ya i think most do. So i will fix the odometer light soon but still what do i do about the choppy computer screen, is it the same thing as the dash light?
Thanks for all your replies by the way!

I think what you're referring to is a stuck pixel(s). I do not believe there is a simple fix for this (outside of replacing with a new unit).

replacing= alot of money i bet

There has been a fix for the OBC but it doesnt always work. I'd recommend just snooping around the classifieds and looking for a cheap OBC and just swapping the whole thing. Make sure the OBC is in good condition though... GOOD LUCK!
