I need the part # for these "axel cap bolts" but cannot find them listed on realoem and my access to even the newer newtis site is now gone.
Thanks for any help.

My question might be related to the above. The key hole on the trunk has lost its chrome look and is now black. Doesn't look nice.
What options do I have to get back to the nicer look? Can I simply replace that assembly? Will that require coding, etc?
I would love to hear of cheaper solutions if possible, e.g., can I just polish it?2004 Mystic Blue M3 | 6-speed | Coupe

I also could not find it in the catalog, or if maybe I remember correctly, they were ridiculously expensive. So I ended up buying some from McMasters or Bolt Depot that were of the correct grade, thread pitch and face. I ended up getting a zinc/gold color and they look fantastic.Build thread: Topaz Blue to Shark Blue

If one replaces the steering rack with the one from ZCP on a standard M3, will there be a need to update the DSC?
If I keep the original steering wheel with cruise control buttons and the standard DSC button on the HVAC section, will things continue to work the way they are?2004 Mystic Blue M3 | 6-speed | Coupe

Steering wheel controls shouldn't be affected by coding the DSC.
Edit: That coding info is for a ZHP but I do believe they are close enough you should be fine although maybe a different value is better.2004 Silbergrau Metallic 6MT

You can only code it if you have a MK60 DSC. With the early DSC you will probably want to just disable it.2004 Mystic Blue M3 | 6-speed | Coupe

What would "it" be here?
I unplugged my steering angle sensor and put electrical tape over the light on the cluster. This has the downside of asp disabling cruise control but there might be other ways to do it. (I got tired of pressing the button every time I started the car, DSC would kick in when making a right hand turn up a hill leaving my apartment.)
