Wife's airbag light comes on any time ambient is below about -5C. I can drive 5-10 and restart the car and it will clear itself. It seems the butt sensor doesn't work when cold.

Fitment was actually spot on. I thought they were loose at first but then they clicked in nicely. Easy to install as well.

I drove it today. That's a rarity since getting the wife's x35d.

Caveat to being driven... I loaded it with 5 30"x80" doors, 5 52" ceiling fans, 4 2x4x8s, 4 light kits, 4 blade kits, new miter saw, bag of sand, 4 door knob sets, and a few other odds and ends from Lowes. Wish I would have taken a picture. But she handled it just fine. The top half of the clam shell had to be tied down of course, but the doors really only stuck out about 3 or 4 inches.

Should have seen all the pickup guys walking past while I loaded "Big Red." Were probably thinking I would never get it all in... My BMW's do work! No free lunches here, don't care how nice a vehicle you are. Have to earn all that high-dollar maintenance and repair you get.
