Its the same no matter which flip-up screen, its a common problem and the two 'fixes' i know of are to, 'A' cut the indicator stalk down

or 'B' get hold of a LHD dash console which swaps the placing of the head unit and the clock etc

Best way is to get a LHD heater panel control as above. Swaps the stereo and OBC/Clock around
Shouldn't be too hard to get one, i need one too

i took the end cap off from the indicator stalk, trimmed off a bit of the plastic and stuck the cap back on, !! worked a treat

The "one" more click is for the side parking lights on the e30

Click it up twice, either left or right and will put that side parking light on.Try it in the dark, you'll see what i mean
