    Ilco key blanks

     

    Found these in an old hardware store and had 3 made for my car. Then decided to buy the blanks as they seem hard to find.

     

    $15 shipped in the USBMWKey.jpg.5d3c6fafff768e861083f0317e704fed.jpg 

  2. Well you asked,

    So I just installed electric power steering in my 02. I removed the steering column and sent it to EPowersteering for his conversion. When I removed the ignition wires I made a diagram and labeled the wires and took photos so I would reconnect them correctly. Well one thing led to another and the marker I used got smeared and the photos were upside down but everything is back in place. I was just looking for verification.

     

    While the car was down I decided to remove the cluster and replace the instrument lights so that was another project. I have since grounded the cluster using the method that was shared in this conversation. My gauges are now working correctly but the signal indicator light is not working. My turn signal switch is shot and need to replace it. I believe this is causing the indicator light problem.

  3. I just replaced all my instrument bulbs which are working but when I pull the headlight switch the fuel and temp gauge are pegged.  I added a ground to the gauge cluster but everything was working prior to that. I added the ground since I had the cluster removed and tried it both connected and disconnected with the same result. Also found the fuse instrument light blown but that has been replaced and the lights are working. Any ideas?

    I have had a rattle in the right rear which occurs when the suspension reacts to bumps. It is not the exhaust, shocks, anything in the trunk. I believe I found the rattle and it appears the right half shaft is moving back and forth vertically. The noise appears when I move the shaft towards the differential and hits the carrier. I have to give it a hard shove and it makes that noise. Sometimes there is resistance but it then loosens and makes that noise.

     

    The car shows 46,000 miles but who knows for sure. I did a complete suspension rebuild, new bushings, shocks, center support bearing, etc. The shaft boots are in good shape but I am leaning towards the CV Joint.

     

    Any thoughts???

  5. Has anyone ordered a new VIN plate from Coupeking? I have been waiting 4 weeks now which may be normal and I understand they do not mass produce these and have other jobs in the process. The order was received and they sent a response with tracking number but it has not shipped. I sent and inquiry after 4 weeks just asking for a timeline and no response.

     

    No big deal and it appears they are reputable, alive, and operating.
