I have a rattle of sorts coming from the passenger door or possibly the B pillar. It kind of sounds like a ping pong ball bouncing around. It intensifies based on the size of the bump, and reverberates until it dies down. Any ideas?

Could be the seatbelt bearing, any issues pulling it in and out?Quote:

I checked the seatbelt. Everything seems fine. I'm pretty sure it's in the passenger door, and it rattles with the window up or down. Best option is probably to take the door trim off and take a look inside. Too bad it's a bit cold here.Quote:

I’m doing a zkw kit from The Retrofit Source. They include nearly 0 instructions.
Anybody know what all these extra rings are for? I purchased the optional bulb holder, so I’m assuming they’re not needed, but who knows.
And the retrofit source’s cust support is shit.
The customer support used to be incredible back when it was just “Matt @ TRS” running the show out of his garage. As with most small companies, they completely lost that with growth.Quote:

The picture didn’t post in the first one. Oops.Quote:

Hey everyone. I really need help with this. Straight up, I've self taught myself everything I know about cars. I've only had auto's. I have a ZHP 6spd transmission and am thinking of doing the detent pins. Is there any DIY for this? The transmission was properly expensive and frankly so are these detent pins if I'm looking at the right things.
This is the diagram I've been referring to: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=23_1054
Essentially thinking about grabbing everything on that page except the caps.
My transmission has 77k miles on it. Is this perhaps something to put off for a few years? Or is this like, probably so necessary that I should just do it now? I'm not afraid to drop the transmission another time in a few years, but I am currently scared of messing up the transmission by doing this job. Any advice on if I should do it, only certain ones/certain gears, and a DIY would be greatly appreciated.
What about the detent pins, exactly?
You shouldn't have to do anything with the transmission's detent pins. Are they defective?
I've never heard of issues with anything other than the clutch, flywheel, and throwout bearing. If you're referring to preventative maintenance, then I guess my answer would be "there's no need" for replacing those.
detent pins are usually an issue on the 5spd zf gearboxes iirc
