I am going to make a bulk order for the steel toothed rim my friend in Germany is producing. As you know, the plastic gear gets damaged, no spare toothed rim available, just a complete new gear with motor for abt. 200 $ from the friendly dealer.
He is changing company soon, no more chance to produce it on weekends there in the workshop.
If you are interested to get one, read here

I do not need a firm order now, just an indication who is interested and how many I should order. Risk on my side. I will order them and pay for them first.
Later I will post here the details on how to order from me, when I have them delivered. Will be sold on basis subject to prior sale.
No more future production!
Fits on electric sunshades of E31, E34 and E32

o.k., I got some firm orders from some countries and ordered more for my stock. Ordered and paid ones are delivered by now.
Out of 20 ordered and delivered to me, I still have 8 left as of this minute.
First come first get, after that no more production.
...for retrofit into a car w/o the rear shade as original install?
thanks!

Sometimes there are used on the auction house, not very often.
There is a technical information bulletin available from BMW for retrofit and what is needed for all that. (see above and below)
The rear parcel shelf you can use from the existing car, can be cut out, then you need the blind with mechanism, the motor with gear and small control box, wire loom and the switch for that.
This is for the non electric one

send me a PM with your full adress, nick name here and your phone number (required for shipping by EMS registered mail). Paypal I have to use the account of my son, old man shogun does not have that.
I will send you the Paypal account via PM.
Also give me your email address via PM, I will send you an instruction from the guy in Germany about installation, it is in German, but the pics will do, and there are more pics and instructions in one link I posted before.
Would these work on an E38?
Vee ave vays of dealing vid your kind...........
Depends on production year of the E38. There is a TI from BMW that the gear has been changed from 08/1996 to a better design in the E38, but from the German board I know that they apparently had large stock and the old one has been seen even in 1998 E38.
Same gear was also used in some Mercedes Benz models, all same maker.
So you have to check your gear on the E38 if that is the same
