Hi all,

I got my 525i a month ago and put this web link under my favorite, thanks for all the useful & interesting information from this forum.

I am planning to activate the bluetooth function of the steering wheel, & also change the steering wheel as the M-sport or smg with paddle shift (depend on the cost ). Anyone know where can I do this in Hong Kong? Someone has mentioned in this forum before is the 2008 model cannot DIY to add-on the paddle shift, is it true?

Lastly, where is AK47 shop, it seems to be a interesting place to drop by

Thanks in advance.

Welcome aboard.

To activate that external function can do in dealer but expensive. We often shop that parts from ebay or third party then install under AK shop.

2008 model cannot DIY to add-on the paddle shift, is it true? <--- I don't think so

Ak shop located in To Kwa Wan. Details contact let Captain PinguHK PM you.

TopMix doesn't have a tooling for E90, so I will have to custom made. They quoted me HK$8000.00 for the trunk and another HK$1500.00 for paint. But I don't like being a white mouse and worry about their fitment.

Good thing with this company from the US is, they claim they can do the LCI conversion...but I would like to spend a few K in buying new tail lights, I think it worth it.

Cheers,
Mike
yes if it cost that much for a part dont me the white mice unless they giving it half prices

Mike

Guys...

Visit Alfa show room today to see the Mito, and saw this...the Alfa 8C, such a beautiful car...

Anyone interested in getting it, lemme know, I can hook you up! (it is left hand drive, so you would need a T plate for it)


Enjoy

Mike
if this is red then I will get it.

hey,

anyone know how much the dealers charge for a front plate holder, (the long rectangular), in paint code A08 for? My friend is in Hong Kong and he can pick it up for me but he's only there for a few days for family emergency.
it will be hard to find 1 paint in a few day.

Thanks ricky & pinguhk for the information. Will you please send the AK address to me by PM. Seems it is a place definitely need to visit in the near future. Ricky, May I know what should I do or what to search for the Paddle Shift steering wheel?

By any luck, if any of you have the parts number for the bluetooth?

Thanks again
