Realistically you shouldn't need to do much of anything, as the currents involved should remain local to the back of the car, where you're doing the welding. However, to be on the safe side, I'd suggest disconnecting the battery, and if you're like me, also disconnect the DME. I did both when my cage was installed and there were no ill effects. -- ______________________________________ Andrew E. Kalman, Ph.D. aek@pumpkininc.com

The code is on a plastic card (the size and thickness of the BMWCCA membership card), and is found in the owner's manual for the radio, which is a separate manual from the M3 owner's manual. In fact, it may include TWO cards, rather than one. And don't forget to write down the code!
