Sunysr, any 325i windscreen will fit but keep the rearview mirror from your cab as it is slightly different,more vibration dampening i think.

All the windscreens are the same (apart M3) but you will need to keep the rearview mirror fixing off the old screen and use that on your new one if it is from a tin top.

Any e30 screen fits,just mirror location is different,can get special glue to fix cab mirror to screen from most car shops,dont get adhesive pads as they dont work
