When my dealer placed my order today it turns out that the Anthracite Headliner is a Priority 1 item which they won't do with European delivery. No custom type orders allowed with Euro Delivery.

So off comes the anthricite headliner.

So while I was on the phone I added the sunshades. Anyone have an opinion on the sunshades. Seems like a nice thing if someone has their brights on or the sun is hot.

I like the sunshades--this is the second car I've had them on. The side window shades are great for kids sitting in the back seats, and on hot days I put up the rear shade (and slide close the sunroof shade) when parking the car.

I have the sunshades and use them when parking the car. They are also great when my kid is in the backseat.

Ok give me the details on the refit. Is this BMW doing it and what material do they use. Is it the real suade they use on the M?

The headliner is alcantara, not suede.

I'd think long and hard about having the headliner replaced--you're asking for squeaks/rattles.

Don't know. Hopefully some of our European members can help.
