Looks good. Our X3 has done very well in winter conditions, but rock chips from sanding the roads are taking a toll after 8 years.

In an earlier post you mentioned non NJ German build. New Jersey? North Carolina? Our X3 was built in Austria by a contractor, Magna Steyr, and I had thought all the E83s were.

I'm actually super interested in the city lights, just noticed the gf's e83 already has the openings for them in the reflector, but wondering where/from what other vehicle you get the bulb carriers and connectors.

So no special et fingers like on e32/34/30 etc required? Very cool.
I'd probably do them like my e34 by disconnecting the corner park lead and leaving those corner bulbs as turn signal only.

Nice updates, mine is barebones but looking to add a sport wheel. You know if steering wheel remotes would work?
