Mirza was going to medical school last time I knew so he would be very busy college work to respond reliably let alone ask to program an instrument cluster...unless he's finished with college I doubt he would have time to do this right now...Quote:

What I really like is that the shift lights turn on not based solely on engine RPMs, but also the rate of acceleration which I would imagine (using my pea brain) would be tougher to code.Quote:

Yeah I saw that but I want to have the OEM M3 cluster functional instead... I know this can be done as I know a few who have this in their "non-M" cars :)Quote:

I shot him a message on IG Gary, thanksQuote:

Got my new Satellite Radio antenna with Fakra connector today[emoji41] All I need is the new blank I ordered to put on my rear parcel shelf and I can swap out antennas for a cleaner look and install [emoji1417]

If it wasn't so damned humid outside today....I would have swapped out Satellite Radio antennas and mounted my new antenna onto my rear deck shelf....

I went ahead and drilled the panel to feed my new antenna wiring thru then I will thread it thru the bolt hole in my center child restraint point on my rear deck shelf... The antenna will be mounted to the panel.

Then once the cabling has been threaded thru I will reconnect the Fakra connector and attach it to the SIRIUS Radio module in the trunk to complete the connection [emoji41]

Even applied a SIRIUS/XM label to my antenna [emoji1]

Today was a perfect day to work on my car so I finished mounting my new Satellite Radio antenna and routed it thru my rear deck shelf center child restraint bolt hole. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0c2fbef876.jpg
You can see the old radio antenna in the foreground as it is set aside...

I then made the connection to the radio module in the trunk. Nice to have the proper Fakra connection [emoji4] I will sort out the antenna wiring later...
