Just need to pull off the cowling and see if the car is pre-wired, it's 56 plate 07, so unsure if it will be. Fingers crossed, but no biggie if not.
Just checked and mine is wired, so that’s a bonus.

That's lucky, I think I did read, that Colb said in facelift cars they started adding the wiring back in for the mfsw
Gents! Ripped out the absorbant foam, thanks for the tips by the way, live and learn!
Rust treated & protected the inside of both doors (even though there was no signs of any rust at all) Replaced with butyl foil panels and a layer of closed cell foam. Installed oem speakers from umfaan and connected to the tweeter line, easy as and it all works a treat. Huge difference! Car doors feel and sound heavier and the audio quality in the cabin has improved 10 fold.
While I was working a bloke rode up the street with a split in his tyre, I offered some tyre weld but said it probably wouldn't work (it didnt), he then begged for money and food, I made him a sandwhich and some water, refused him dosh and he drive off with a flat tyre having 5 fingered my jack, and leccy tape. No reward for kindness these days, geezers probably used it to nick one of my neighbours wheels I bet...
So I need to buy a new jack, as my radiator replacement has just arrived, current ones cracked and not leaking slow.. then will refill the coolant and bleed the system

I did that a week or two back, partly for the cleaner look and partly because they weren't on straight anyway (and the near side was an inch higher on the body than the drivers side!) Unluckily for me the paintwork was damaged under one of the badges.
I think mine were level (I didn’t check to be honest, I just dived into removing them and polishing the wings).
Annoying that you found some paint damage and under the badges - I found similar with my wife’s 330i when I debadged that. After removing them I had to polish the boot lid and refit the badges.
