Hi Gordon,
I sent you an email did you not get it? I will resend it now.

Guys I keep getting PMs about these asking for the lowest price. If you're genuinely interested make me an offer and we'll work out something, price is VERY flexible. They do me no good sitting in my garage and if you think you can use them I'm happy to work something out.

Hi Zebuhor,

I have a set of D.F.C on my M5. And I'm currently thinking about replacing my suspension. So I inquired A.C. for replacement of driver +2 rears, I replaced mine passenger last year due to leakage. Passenger side along cost $2000, 3 others was quoted $3600, I think its reasonable price, if I were to purchase KW V3, it would cost me about $2800, and I wouldn't mind adding a little to keep my D.F.C. working.

Problem is I do have an issue with my D.F.C control panel, which my two previous owner didn't. My shift panel along the passenger side has a gap with my center console. I suspect caused by D.F.C. control panel, its right side margin is not lining up with my shift panel (also A.C., white carbon). So this leads me to consider getting your parts. AC now only sell replacement parts for D.F.C owners, they do not sell full set, nor to new customers.

Please let me know this,
1. Do you have this issue on your set? Do you hold any photo taken with the set installed on your car?
2. Which 3 suspensions do you hold?

I'll post picture to illustrate my problem, if any of board members have inputs on this, I'll be glad to hear.
Thanks to all,

Hank

Looks like either the DFC panel is too large or your shifter trim is not sitting correctly. My car came with DFC and the original owner cut the metal plate to fit nicely next to the original cigarette lighter. See photos here
Got my M5!

Hi,
So you can still get replacement parts for these? thats great, the price not so great, lol.
I'm not sure what problem it is your having with the control panel maybe a picture can help me out.
To answer your questions, i never had these installed on my car so unfortunately i do not have any pictures. And by saying which 3 suspensions do i hold, do you mean what shocks front/rear, left/right? I have both rears and one front they are interchangeable left to right.
Let me know if that answered your questions.
