ive just bought a motorised screen for my e30 but have got a feeling that it wont open because the indicator stalk will be in the way has anyone else had any experience with fitting one of these or does anyone know what modifications i can do to make it fit

You can buy a LHD HVAC trim from the USA and modify it to fit the center console.
