I'm busy trying to take out the damn driver footwell! :argh: :bangdesk:
Feel like just ripping it out! the damn air duct is frikking secured solid all over the place, sooo much bolts to remove....and you think having small hands is a good thing? no! hahaha cos it's still blooding difficult!
I'll take some photos later to show you what I mean....

So if I can save you a few Rssss let me.
You go to your nearest Electrical appliance parts supplier.
Tesca rings a bell
You say "good morning sir"
"I am here to buy a cooker hood filter......it is a long sheet like material"
"It comes from a Defy Extractor"
The man will then give you an extractor filter which comes wrapped in a plastic bag and of which there is sufficient to do 4 filters from.
You will then pay him R100 and say "thank you"
You will then proceed to your house and you shall strip the material from the filter frame and recover it with the extractor material.
I hope it is clear if not pm me

I've already had mine open to try and see why the air flow is so terrible. Back then I didn't know the E34 had a micro filter. What I found was that someone had already tried to get in there and damaged the air duct and broke some plastic cover which I believe is the cover you need to remove to get to the filter. Now that I think about it, I think I could see the radiator through the hole in the plastic cover. I don't recall seeing a filter. Now I'm curious. Will have another look see over the weekend.

New radiator, it included the bleeder screws, exp. tank, radiator cap 
Some new parts from SMG
I just needed the out rubber gasket, but it's sold as a set so yeah. I kept the original metal cover though the new one is plastic :yuck:
Yes yes I know about the mark
Been meaning to get this for ages!!!! Rear tow hook cover! :joy:
I only realised that I needed the 2 clamps with the cover...it's the two thingies sticking out :flyfun:
"We suggest purchasing 2 clamps part number 51 71 1 910 956 for installation of this part. "
Needed just the one radiator clip
Some pre-mixed 50/50 coolant
New radiator fitted
*I did not purchase new clamps.
