HMMM...The car looks like it is in good shape. I can't tell from the pics if the pistons are damaged...Maybe it would be worth doing an e2i swap on it, and having a nice beater? :ohyeah:

I already have a nice beater... Parts from this will make it better.

I'm not sure where you see "good shape". I a ratty blue interiored, moldy trunked, dinged body, automatic, 528e with 345k hard miles on it.

Does the sunroof work? I need all of the cable guts. Cables, and all of the plastic parts attaching the sunroof panel. It's a pain to remove, so I understand if you don't want to do it.

Basically, 15, 25 and 30 from realoem.com.

Hell, I've always wondered how all that fit together. I'll hook the battery up and see if it works. If it does, and I feel the motivation, what's it worth to you?

New parts are $200ish. So maybe $75ish depending on your success.

-move the sunroof back a few inches, pop off the front edge of the panel and slide it back.
-close the sunroof and raise it into vent mode. unscrew from the inside and remove. This is where you'll find if the plastic rails are ok.
-remove all of the screws attached to the body.
-use a plastic panel remover to help pry up the metal parts that are double stuck on.
-slide the inner panel all of the way back and remove. it's tricky. go easy.
-follow instructions to extract the cables.

Good luck. We're counting on you.

Each side has a small crack near the front, where it's backed by metal. Rear looks fine. You still want?

I think the hood hinges are beat on this car. Hood really doesn't like opening or closing.

Maybe.

54-5 I believe.

They look good so far. See if you can get them out the rest of the way and let me know.

Thanks!

Once the cables are extended as far as they will go they just pull out.

Is this all the stuff you want?

I'm done taking stuff out of the engine bay. Got what I wanted (wiring harness). Some more stuff listed in top post of this thread.

If there's anything in this picture you want, speak up.

I'm also done with the interior. Speak up if you want anything else.

Yes. If you don't see any cracks in the rear plastic parts, I'll take it. I'll take the shift knob too if it still secures well. And the rear window lockstrip. You can send the front too. I just need enough to do the rear. You can email me with details.

Thanks.

Interested in both taillights. The cracks in the left side taillight are only in the turn signal section or are there more not pictured? I don't mind cracks on either light so long as its just that amber part.

I do a combo with #11 and the computer assembly there. If the backlight doesn't work, I guess I could use the hazard and defroster buttons because mine kinda stick.

I'll wait for the pics and throw you an offer.
