Great write up Tony, thanks brother.I did one for removing the instrument binnacle in a Z3 Glenn. I'll dig it out for you and add a link here later.

Tony.
Glenn, If you type in bimmer.worksvin this will take you to a BMW vin number checker site. Type in the last 7 digits of your car's vin number, click on 'I'm not a robot', and your car's production spec will be displayed.Not sure what the extended leather option is, but it sounds good! It does seem to have all of the options inside with heated seats and such and has a multi player CD changer in the trunk. I am still learning what all of the stuff on the car is and don't know much about that the options are and what is standard. First BMW provides for a steep learning curve.
Just made it a 'How To' why you did not do that in the first place? ....I did one for removing the instrument binnacle in a Z3 Glenn. I'll dig it out for you and add a link here later.
