heinzboehmer's 2002 Topaz 6MT Coupe

The wireless charger is nicely done. Was it some sort of kit, or roll your own?

Thanks.

That's pretty awesome. I will go check out that video now!

Looks like the M3 made it onto the latest M539 Restorations video (on the right):



Was fun meeting and hanging out with everyone there. Sreten is a pretty cool dude. He seemed jealous of the cars with carbon airboxes and kept saying how the M3 he bought sounded like shit lol

Also, posting the charger update made me realize that I ran the harness in a spot that would potentially interfere with the glovebox. Thought it felt a little weird when putting it on, but I guess it didn't feel weird enough to make me question it.

Anyway the potential issue was here:



I couldn't find a good way to poke my hand in there to check, but I think the side of the glovebox rests against that metal bracket. The harness was easy enough to rerun, so I just did that:



Now won't have to worry about potentially rubbing through the harness and causing a short.

You have yet again described every car project I've ever done. Fun to read your journal and the car looks great.

Thank you! Funny how the snowballing always seems to happen, no? Feels great when you're done though.

I thought you were making a bomb...then I realized it was a contact charger! lol

Nice work!

LOL, the heinzboebeemer is a wiring guru.

Lol, thanks. Goes to show just how much I ended overcomplicating the simple replacement of the charger.
