dunno how big of an issue this would be but would it be worth making my hood electric if i decide to keep it? i know a good auto electrician who said it wouldnt be hard if i got the motors but i heard the original bmw ones are temperamental? any ideas?

i would say no, as the motors break and u can bend the arms by mistake and it's all big bills! new motors are a fortune.
Just from what i know, leave it manual
