Converting to electric sunroof

Tried the search function and Wiki. The wiki suggests that you can convert from manual winder opening to electric by just fitting the motor and button. Is it that simple? Anyone done it?

The metal pipe that runs across the front of the engine sometimes rusts out and you get pin hole leaks. Could be that.

Re: M42 running really hot after replacing thermostat

Also, see in the photo below where ive drawn the arrow, there is a slot. If you fitted the housing with instant gasket you may have filled this in. I cant remember why, but i think its important and helps with bleeding out bubbles. Some clever person will come and correct me shortly. http://img708.i...

Fan shroud does make quite a difference, so put that back in if you have it, then take it for a run again.

Unpainted facelift bumpers?

Bought an e30 today that is quite a high spec 325i auto coupe 1988 facelift, but instead of having body coloured bumpers, they are plain unpainted black plastic. Is that from factory or are they bmw replacements that never got to the paint shop?
