Then, on both your seat belt restraints, you'll have to take the top of the plastic piece of that the headliner rests on. Sometimes there will be a little square tab for you to take out, underneath it a bolt. Maybe be a little more bolts. You may have to take off the lower piece first to get to the top one. The only part of seat belt you unbolt is the part that is on the column and gives you adjustable seatbelt height. Pop the plastic off, you'll likely be presented with a 14mm or 15mm bolt. LAST, remember the plastic columns up front? There's a more "triangular set in the back. Those may have a bolt each but are mostly kept in by clips. Once you're done, the headliner is loose. You may even get it through the back with seats folded down, but since it's a couple I would suggest front doors. Now. It will BEND a little. DO NOT WORRY. As long as you don't hear a crack you're good. Even if you do, it's repairable with fiberglass n glue. Especially since you'd be installing a new, material - wouldn't worry about creases - as the ones on the headlines (if any even left over after the pro's had their way with it) would be visible. OR go straight to them, and pay 3x the price for the labor |

18" wheels were standard for sport and M-Sport IIRC - I owned an '08 135i with 18s all around and now own a '13 again with 18" wheels. The 128i came with 17" wheels standard, but I'm unsure if an M-Sport option was available on the 128i.

My 2008 135i was produced in Feb 2008, and is the M-Sport option with no Sunroof. Purchased and delivered to Vancouver Canada in April 2008. I now have 76,000 Kms. on it and aside from the usual suspects such as fuel pump, water pump, valve cover and OFHG gaskets it has been problem free. Oh yes, the clutch slave cylinder failed and was replaced under warranty at 16 months. I replaced the brakes with Zimmerman coated rotors and Brembo Ceramic pads at 60,000 km's (no more brake dust on wheels).

Wow, that original post of mine is almost 10 years old now. What I stated in that post is correct, but for US cars only. Other markets, like Canada, had the M-sport package available from the get go along with other differences in options. For example, all US 135 models had the sunroof included as standard while it was an option in most other markets. It was definitely a little frustrating to see the M-sport package become available on US cars one model year after my car. I would have loved to have the anthracite headliner.

I have 2010 M Sport, Lemans Blue. Excellent (not quite mint) condition. I'm getting offers on my car is grocery store parking lots and gas stations. 4-years ago, I paid: $11,500. It had: 97,000 miles but just 1 owner, garage kept. he had all the records, which were perfect. Anyway, I'm getting offers of: 14 - 15K ! It's crazy. I have no intention of selling it but I'm just curious; has anyone else here experienced this?
