Secondly, is it such a good idea to drill a hole to the assembly, I mean we already have the damn condensation problem already????
The only difference for the 1er is the location of the cover, which is located directly behind the headlight, instead of on top.

The kit includes a rubber grommet to seal off the drilled hole.

1. You both asked for pics of the actual assembly. It's in the instructions.
2. If the minor difference in the 335 and 135 is that troubling to you, you probably shouldn't be modding your car as most parts are developed for the 335i and then adapted to the 1er.
3. It's just a cover. NOT the assembly.
I'm not meaning to be an ass btw.

First off, slow your roll Daniel-san.

Secondly, many people like to see the actual product before purchase no matter how much it costs. Showing a picture of a wiring harness for another vehicle is not that. I am one of these people. I am sure there are plenty of others out there too.

Finally, these questions were posed to the vendor. Why don't you let them answer the questions for their product as they will be more accurate than most any end user's.

I'm not meaning to be an ass btw.

I didn't mean to thread jack the OP. But you guys clearly hadn't read all what, 6 threads about this? I'm just trying to help. Out of respect for the vendor, I am withdrawing myself from this convo. And I have the strong feeling you're about 10 seconds away from trying to pull rank.

I have read every single thread on 1addicts about this particular mod. Just prefer to get my information from the vendor since they are the source.

BTW that last line was uncalled for. I have never used my rank to get anything and never will. We are all equal until the other person puts themselves in a bad position.

Back on topic: I cannot wait to see the actual FS thread for this item so that all questions can be answered.

I think that while a lot of people on this forums are BMW experts, some aren't (Shocking huh?). Since we are in a forum (YES THIS IS A FORUM) to help each other, and since the pics are a 135i install - it would be more helpful to see the installation pictures for a 135i. I'm here to help others and to find information I may not know. Not trying to be a smartass... CHEERS!
