Maximus' E34 525i

Wow! That looks fantastic Max! And with the hot weather we are having, I would think it definitely helps!!! :thumbs:

Now to have the aircon regassed :nonono:

ooo that must suck with this heat wave. Mine works, but the vents in the dash are not what you'd call 100%. Airflow is not what it should be. Something is broken, but I have to remove the entire dash which I'm to scared to do on my own :mmm:

Car is looking good :thumb:

They said I cant open the windows for 48 hours....so I had to drive home with all the windows closed :fencelook: I did put the fan on to just blow whatever air into the cabin :grin: Im in the process of installing my HIDs :grin: (was going to take it to Rick for assistance however somerset west is a tad bit far for me :grin: ... I got Rick on speed dial in case I run into hiccups :grin

it all depends on how neat you want it done. ive got the same lights in my E30 so if you have any troubles give a shout, im a bit closer that rick haha!

Another Update: Just finished installing my HIDs and I'm loving it! :grin: just takes a few moment once you've switched on the lights for it to warm up... these are 6000K's

Check out my installation HERE

As it warms up - its kind of greenish blue

I need to change the park light globes :grin:

There's all the mods I've done now :grin:

Will be broke for a while now :fencelook:

 

[Psymon69]

one of the best mods you can do, makes a huge difference! nice:thumbs:

UPDATE: Remember I said I had to change the park light globes?
Well I did!....While I was shopping around in Midas for a new radiator hose, saw some of these on the shelves and it was dirt cheap so I decided to buy some.
Got LEDs for both the number plate light and also the park lights. The darn package said nothing of what the colour is, so I bought blue :grin:

Now come on it doesn't look too bad, once the HID is on, you can't even notice it.

I must say, the insides (and the clear part) of the number plate plastic enclosure was quite aged and yellow however it still looks better than the OEM bulb :thumbsup:

End.

Yip, got a new hose and also bought some 'secret stuff' from MiniMike to seal everything up. Day 3 and so far so good (touch wood) :grin: :thumbsup:

I had those blue ones in my 323 and i think they are illegal. coisman would be able to elaborate on this but no vehicles except police and metro are allowed blue lights anywhere. this is why some HID kits are illegal because they have blue light. it does look really awesome though! where did you get the numberplate lights? and how much? also do they give any errors?

looking good, glad the tank is all better!:thumbs:

Beautiful! And original wheel caps nogal! I just had my aircon regassed two weeks ago, and was amazed at how great these cars aircons work! BTW, I have an M20 525i Auto.

These cars are just beautiful! You have a classic original in a historically popular colour! Just think about how many white E12 - first fives used to grace our roads!

Very nice! :=):
