First E39 5er with Paddles in the world. You see it here first!

Went through a near 3-hour retrofit. It's a lot more challenging to work in an E39. But it is worthy. Yes the paddles do work.

Thanks to VAFunkie and Peter for supporting and believing in me.

Looks like Lycos broke the links. Probably need to host the pictures elsewhere.

http://members.lycos.co.uk/fac183/E39_retrofit1.jpg just gives one an error message.

Nothing personal at all vinvin . . . I'm just an old-fashioned traditional "clutch" dweeeb who doesn't embrace all that new technology offers. Enjoy your Beast and keep being creative . . .
