A Few Niggles to sort out for my R36
Hi all,
Starting a list of items that I would like some advice on, from our esteemed experts here, namely;
1) A list of tried and tested LED replacement globes for my parkers, rear number plate, puddle lights and possibly cornering lights. I bought the ****e Jaycar "Canbus compatible" T10 globes on the weekend and proceeded to see my left parker, my right parker and even my left headlight periodically go off and generate MFD errors. I even swapped the left one at Jaycar for a different one and no luck. They are crap. Taking them back tomorrow. Can these be bought at Supercheap or elsewhere or is it an eBay thing?
2) Polish up my roof rails and chrome window trim which is cloudy and oxidized or rain spotty (very on the rails) and Autosol doesn't work. Anyone tried Gumption or something else to restore the shine?
3) I NEED Bluetooth and am thinking of a Denison Pro BT from Cushie. "Only" $350 ish dollaridoos. Is this a good option? 9w7 sounds flash but not sure how cheap I can get this, plus I don't know how my man card will hold up prying bits of dash off to install anything, so the most painless vs cost option would be appreciated.
4) Minor scratches and scrapes from previous owner, what's the best low risk polish to clean these off without harsh scratching?
5) Some trusted options for servicing around the Sydney Hills district for my new beastie. I already take my wife's Cooper S convertible to BEMW for regular fixes (new clutch $2000, new caster bushes $600, new harmonic balancer $1000) so I would appreciate any advice and tips on some reliable and affordable Euro experts who may be able to take not only the R36 servicing, but even the Mini if the recommendations and reputation exceeds BEMW? Not that I am unhappy, but it pays to shop around to get the best deal/service/price for both my Euro rockets.... 
That's it for now. I will add to this thread as time goes on as the inevitable extras get stacked on to this ever growing list. I have been trawling through Kamold's and Rjt86 and Snerlo's threads for tips and parts etc but some of the links are old and busted and not working right, just like me I suppose?
Help me Obi-Wan Kenobis, you're my only hope..... 
Cheers
Chris
