How do you remove the rear cover of the speedometer from the BMW Z3?

Model: BMW Z3 MK 1 - Years 1995-2002
Part: Instrument cluster

In order to replace the rear cover of the BMW Z3, you must first remove the speedometer from inside its housing, unscrewing the special screws and disconnecting the connectors at the rear. Once the speedometer has been removed, it will be possible to unscrew the screws on its back so that the rear cover can be removed. There will also be screws under it that secure the front cover. Therefore, this too can be removed and both parts can be replaced with new spare parts.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
