I am trying to get hold of the above part without paying over the odds. I have tried FabDirect (thanks Kin Mak) and capital in Tullamore are doing a search for me. Does anyone know where I could get this part? Thanks all. |

Have you tried the dealer? Probably not as expensive as you may think. -------------

I'd bet that GSF & Euro Car Parts won't stock something like that. Bourker - PM me if you need access to the Adverts forum to respond to your advert!

Hi Bourker, try a wanted ad on http://www.e30zone.net - www.e30zone.net . There are plenty of E30 experts over there. My leccy hood started playing up last year, I was going to the UK last year and was going to fly and rent a car. I found a garage outside Birmingham called the E30 center and after a phone call to them I decided to take the E30. They took a look at the roof and straightened various rods and changed a casting that had broken in the well where the roof goes when its stowed. The casting that breaks is a common fault on the cabs. The E30 lads in the E30 center fabricate a replacement part and fit it .They serviced the roof and its worked fine since. All in £150. They've never had a failure with the fabricated part. I was at my wits end last year till I googled the problem and found I wasn't the only one with a dodgy electric roof. Where are you based? ------------- Regards Mac Current Drives: 1992 E30 325i Cab 2004 E46 318ci M-Sport Previous: 1997 E36 320i Saloon |
