Have had the Dinan sway bar since 2003, no problem. Are you sure there isn't a problem with a shock tower or a camber plate? Hitting big bumps shouldn't break the eye bolt in the bar.

The Abu Dhabi Municipality owes me BIG TIME for the amount of parts I replaced - eventually went to coilovers when the OEM air struts went up 15% to 2,200 Dirhams ($600) each. There are huge speed bumps/ pedestrian crossing humps everywhere - it's brutal!!

Refilled the obligated carry on spare quart of oil. Almost two months after replacing the OFH gasket, it needed a little topping off. Way better than 1 quart every 500 miles!

Finally found a amp for my stock system, but nothing is coming from the 6 disc player. It powers on, and I can change the tracks, but nothing. Any ideas?

Yes sir. I run up to Austin every so often to pick up craigslist or OfferUp finds. Used to have to go through frequently to round rock to visit Ikea. Now, thankfully, we have our own.
Oh man. Now I know who's beating me to Craiglist finds.

We'll have to do a local meet up sometime.
I have a lot to learn about these X5s.

Check the coding on your amp. Sounds like its not coded to be aware of the CD changer. I also pulled out my CD changer and put in a BlueBus so I get full BT and streaming now!
