Re: Wanted - Retrofit headlining early Z3

I can also confirm swapping roofs is not a huge task. 16 screws along the back on the inside. Motor ball joint and slowly break the seal. i used a replacement seal that came on a roll which made it easy to re install.

Re: Rear beam bushes

I can second what Brian is talking about. I have written a guide on changing those bushes on the.org fourm.

I fitted powerflex to my M and fitted the OEM bushes to another zed.

If anyone needs help with these bushes or any bushes in the rear end im willing to help any zed owners on here.
