Thanks to Bill Bowes & David Woodham (Senior Sixer), I have my rear headrests installed
correctly in my 530i. I now currently have the whole interior apart to
install a stereo, phone, VDOs & rear fog light harness.

I have order new head rest covers ($20 each) from:

apparently, they make the stuff for World Upholstery]

I recently got a quote that sounds pretty good for my '85 635 CSi(A) --
these
guys seem to be more affordable and quicker because they actually make
the stuff
instead of outsourcing it like some of the others I spoke to.

Regarding VDOs, I have an oval 3 guage pack (oil temp, oil pressure,
volt) from a euro e12 Hartge m535. I have no idea where to install this
thing. The plastic holder with 3 holes is oval, and has no holes for
mounting anywhere. Any ideas?

Also, on the VDO thought, where do the senders for the oil temp & oil
pressure install? Does one go in the oilpan, replacing the drain plug?
If so, I need that adapter & drain plug, if anyone has a spare (the one
I have is small, looks like it'd fit a later oil pan).

Any info about installing this stuff would me much appreciated.

Thanks. Samir.
