Perfect thanks !!

Bumping old thread. Anyone know if there is an additional parts on both sides of the tailgate? Looking at parts online and most kits only seem to have one side.

Looks like it. Shame they won’t ship to Ireland

Looking for the tools that are used for roof rails. 99 Touring

Hey old thread but I am looking to install the larger MID but have low OBC cluster. Is it just plug and play?

Ok so a lot more digging and it seems not so simple. The larger display, if I’m right, is more complex and would need a high OBC retrofit, which while I would love, is probably not worth the effort.

Want to swap the radio/cassette all in one for larger MID and separate CD player. Car is 1999 so am hoping it’s plug and play. All advice would be great!

Hey all. Got my first E39, a 1999 523i Touring, couple weeks ago. Absolutely loving it. This is the most modern car I’ve owned in about 15 years (have E28 and E10) so it’s a steep learning curve on audio and elecs….. cant just follow the wire any more Attached is pic of my current radio and display, basic model. I want to change to the larger display (am I correct that this is called high obc???) with CD player in the dash. There is also a CD changer in the boot which I am getting rid of. Question: Can I just exchange for larger display and separate in dash CD player? I’ve looked on RealOEM and it gives me a whole lot of part numbers so all advice gratefully received. Secondly I bought GROM BT3 Bluetooth kit and so whatever unit I install will need to work with this. As far as I can tell current radio needs the DSP converter. Thanks!!

Amazing thank you

Do you know, I never even thought that it might be there already. Will check.

Thanks! Yes you are right the wiring has different part number for RHD vs LHD. So I need to hunt down RHD stuff. Rest will hopefully be standard. thanks

Hi there. Looking for rear bumper side parts for both sides. chromed.

Hey all Would like to install cruise control in my 1985 528i auto. I doubt will use much but I like putting options onto the car. So have a few questions maybe someone here can answer: 1. Is there any difference in parts for RHD vs LHD? Mine is RHD and most of the parts available are in the USA. 2. Are any of the parts specific to the particular model E28, e.g will parts from 535i work on a 528i auto? 3. Has anyone done this install before and any hints or tips? Thanks Ian

Hi guys anyone know if there is a specific seal / gasket for around the glass moonroof? I have factory fitted one and it’s starting to leak. thanks ian

Thanks. I’ve been searching everywhere. Can you remember roughly how much you paid? There’s only one set anywhere for sale at the moment and they are pricey. Esp with the extra duty that will be charged coming from USA.
