What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

[Avetiso]

Cleaned the interior and quick detailed the whole car in preparation for a car meet. But I didn't go.

Well I beat the post work setting sun (thank you 8:32pm sunset) and got my alarm kit installed. The biggest PITA was the siren in the firewall. My poor back. Haha. Anyway, without further delay: my chirps! Bluejay sold separately. :-)

Sitting in the waiting room at the shop. They're mounting my newly Anthracite Gray Style 135s this morning. Might have a picture or two later

Thanks! I have some tips for when anyone else is going to do this:
- when installing the piece of metal into the firewall so that you can screw the siren there, I couldn't get it to snap in. After wrestling with it and almost dropping it a few times, I grabbed a wrench and squeezed the metal tabs in a bit. That allowed it to snap into place.
- it was very difficult to screw the siren in after that because my ratchet kept hitting metal or the blower box. I wish I had a very long extension or long flexible extension.

Now a question. I just realized i didn't pay attention to which direction i reinstalled the cabin air filter (clean side up or down) due to the looming darkness and fog. Does it only install one way? What side should the clean side of the filter go, up or down? I need to check when I get home.
