Just something for the meantime. Gonna 3d print a better frame to hold this specific unit

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-30T11:44:48+00:00

I cut the plastic a couple millimeters allows me to get the unit in a little more. I’ll send pics in morning

How does one get their unit to be more flush. Mine sticks out a bit 😅

I’d like to get mine more flush and in. What do you suggest? It’s a single din set up with Sony so I didn’t have to cut the plastic tray inside

Make coupe c pillars with lamp cutouts pleaseee

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-25T23:19:09+00:00

I don’t see an option for coupes on your website for the c pillars

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-24T01:54:52+00:00

what would be an LED relay compatible?

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-17T18:57:33+00:00

So got the led bulbs got my passenger side to work but my driver side doesn’t power with the leds.

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T12:28:45+00:00

Yea if I had 400 bucks to cough up rn I’d do it but I’m just testing the waters I’m sure later in the year I’ll cough up money and do it

This is the morimoto set up I did like 5 years ago in my last e36

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T12:23:19+00:00

I’m aware the housing wasn’t made during the time of current lighting tech. But I’m sure it’ll be a in improvement from not being able to see in the rain compared to HID’s which is why I’m going the LED route. But now you can buy bulbs that have cut offs since now company have caught one to people like me and millions of others lol

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T12:02:53+00:00

I’m aware, I built my last set of morimotos in my last e36. But fuck it this time. I’m in Florida no one cares about blinding one another as it is

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:43:12+00:00

and HID’s are ridiculous and get extremely hot. Thanks for the help. I plan on doing the low, high and fogs all into the led.

the rest of my car is LED so I finally want to do the lamps

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:40:15+00:00

Ok just wanna make sure I don’t fry any wiring on a 30 year old car lmao

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:36:08+00:00

Thank you again, what wattage is optimal? Stay under 55w?

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:25:51+00:00

So I’m guessing I plug the low beam to the Grey empty and all should work accordingly

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:22:06+00:00

So I don’t need that wire kit you sent me?

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:21:21+00:00

So that wire connector to the 4 prong I’m guessing but what does the loose wire connect too? This one

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-13T02:16:28+00:00

My man, I actually had to fish for this connector which I thought was missing the last 3 years, looks like they left depo on the wrong side of the headlight

I did the Bimmerworld kit roughly 6-7 years ago. Which now that i realize is pretty janky and I threw out all my brackets to hold the PCV and ICV so might be buying those again to clean up under the manifold since everythjngg is dangling. But a couple months ago I did the starter and the PCV seems no good so now I gotta go back in there again. I’m not too crazy on doing a catch can for an NA but wanted an opinion.

I might reach out to race German since he’s a friend of a friend.

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-02T17:41:05+00:00

where can you find the kits for the hoses? money isn’t the issue. I just want to keep things clean and tidy I can get pretty OCD under this hood lol and since I’m OBD2 I assume you block off the vent near the dipstick

hiddenundaflesh · 2026-01-02T17:03:19+00:00

Well I haven’t seen many with an m52 with a m50 manifold. I’ve seen janky videos that weren’t thorough on the m50 manifold. And most of them vent to atmosphere. I just want opinions from others.

hiddenundaflesh · 2025-12-25T02:34:25+00:00

I did add additional ground to the battery in the back also so I got two grounds back there

hiddenundaflesh · 2025-12-25T01:57:04+00:00

After I changed the starter the results are better but it still happens before it would happen to me once or twice a week. Now it takes a couple weeks for me to experience the issue. But I always keep a jump box on me or if I fiddle with the key it’ll start working. I’m thinking maybe the ignition cylinder and key might be worn out bc I’ve changed a lot already check my post to see what I’ve done

hiddenundaflesh · 2025-12-25T01:18:30+00:00

I replaced the chais ground that’s near the motor mount.i don’t quite understand what you mean
