Renown 130R Steering Wheel Install - BMW E30 325i Convertible - Restoration Series Part 8
In Part 8 of this E30 325i restoration series I replace the original steering wheel with a Renown 130R leather with motorsport stitch.
The old wheel was showing signs of wear and did not look very sporty. I always preferred an M-Tech wheel but those are becoming hard to come by. The Renown is an affordable alternative to the mtech that still looks period-correct and is a nice upgrade to the interior. I also used the Renown hub. Other brands such as MOMO and OMP have similar design wheels, but don't offer the M color stitching.

How To Remove An M20 Engine - BMW E30 325i Convertible - Restoration Series Part 2
Просмотров 2,7 тыс.2 года назад
In Part 2 of this series I pull the M20 motor from the E30 in preparation for some much needed maintenance. It was my first time pulling a motor, and was certainly a long process, but was definitely worth it when we finally got it out. There are many ways to extract the motor. I used an engine hoist to lift it from above and pulled the transmission out along with it. There's no real particular ...
