I know we exchanged a couple of PM's on this, but still not clear to me ...

If I get the M3 rear control arms (BMW or TRW) either at the same time or later, which kit do i need to order now:
  1. "Koni Sport Strut and shock Kit E82/9X to M3 Conversion" kit
  2. "Koni Sport Strut and shocks E82 E90 E92 E93 1 and 3-Series" kit
I really want the rear external adjustability, but the first kit does not seem to offer this option...

Thanks.
This will be an upgrade if you currently have OEM or Koni Yellows.

Externally adjustable means the adjustment can be made externally from the damper. The Yellow standard adjust must be removed completely from the vehicle first. Dampers that don't require you to remove the trunk liner would be the external reservoir variety, which starts at $6500 and up.

The conversion kit for the M3 will always come with an external adjustable rear dampers.
