I already have the headliner back in. It mounts in the stock sunroof location and shares the mounting points, the holes lined up well. You'll have to drill 3 holes for the rear section of it since the stock sunroof extents to the rear of the car.

I already have Stoptechs on my 1er but seeing what is happening I hope they'll still make pads. Crap situation all around.

Look forward too seeing your build get completed.
The fitment and quality were good, it was everything else that I found to be a pain. They claim they will send me a brand new panel, but we'll see. I've noticed Stoptech suddenly increase their social media presence, and from what I've heard, it was the abrupt change in suppliers when they were bought that caused a lot of the delay. Could go either way at this point.

Anyhow, maybe Nelsons had improved…

My frustration wasn’t an adjustment install issue. It flat out didn’t fit properly and would eventually let water in. When I explained that to them, he treated me like an incompetent idiot.

Ignore the circle, I was highlighting that to prove refund approval.
After your earlier post about NRW I looked into BW and noticed they were no longer selling that sunroof delete so I had to play nice with NRW since there was no other option that I could find. If this is going in your daily or the car will see rain, probably a good idea to caulk around the panel prior to install.

I understand and agree if it’s the only game in town. Looks like they’ve improved their fitment given your experience which is great!

Definitely used RTV black. Car is far far from daily…

FYI Gents,

Going to remove and sell the SR2 Carbon sunroof delete from my E92 m3. I’ll be removing the roof for cage work and going to just replace the whole thing with a carbon one. Checking interest at $400.

Will remove and clean it up. Happy to ship at cost.
