New Alcantara CSL eBrake boot arrived so I installed it and changed out the eBrake handle as the old one finally broke apart.

I ordered a Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2 for my M3 with a 128 GB Micro SD card.
How people are driving these days, I decided to equip all my cars with their own dedicated dash cam.

Here's the new dash cam installed in my M3.
I positioned my dash cam so it is barely noticeable from the driver's seat.
Here's a view from outside
Since I work in a military base, having a small dash cam is a must.
This is the view captured from my new dash cam

I also installed my new Rennline phone mount and Rennline charger for a much cleaner looking install
The new Rennline mount fits in the same exact spot as my original phone mount did but has a much cleaner profile.
Got the cables all tidied up and sorted so everything looks clean.
I love this setup over any I have tried to date. For me, this is the perfect phone setup

Do you mind sharing the cable clip you have just adjacent to the A/C switch? I have just installed the same mount in my ZHP and would love to tidy up the cord as you have done. Thanks!
No problem! You can get them here:

My M3 came out of hibernation today . . . ready to be unleashed to the streets again
I took my ZHP down for a few days so I can tweek the exhaust muffler hangers to get the right height under my carbon fiber diffuser panel. While I have the ZHP offline, I get to enjoy driving my M3 for a few days and allow this amazing machine to stretch it's legs. A nice start to the 2024 car season
Driving to work this morning felt great from the performance point of view however, the BMW Performance ssk that is installed in my M3 pales in comparison to the AutoSolutions ssk I have in my ZHP. The want is very strong to have the AutoSolutions ssk that I have in my garage, thanks to Hieu, installed soon. As soon as I am complete with my driveline maintenance (GUIBO/Center Line Bearing replacement), I will be installing my AutoSolutions ssk.
For those who have a manual and have been thinking of which ssk to get, I recommend you contact Ronald Aractingi (owner of AutoSolutions) to discuss how you want to drive your car and he will personally design the right ssk for your use case. That's what Ron did for me

In a few weeks I will be sending my M3 to the shop for a few weeks to get the following things accomplished:
- GUIBO/Center line bearing replacement
- VANOS rebuild
- Cooling System refresh (replace radiator, thermostat, water pump, upper and lower radiator hoses, expansion tank and associated cooling system sensors)
- Rod Bearing Maintenance
- Motor/transmission mount replacement
- Valve guide adjustment maintenance
Once complete my M3 will be set for the 2024 car season
