“I am not a dork” Elliott, your videos just keep getting better and better! The content is terrific and your unique sense of humor is making for really entertaining videos. You made the right career move, Elliott
I'm a simple man, I see a Elliot Alvis video I like the video then watch it... then I see a Hoovies Garage video upload minutes after. i like the video and watch it
i was going through my late fathers garage last night and found a new wiper motor in a box just waiting to be put on the 64 el camino, I miss my dad but at least he left parts to be put on his car
Hey Mr Motary Notary, thanks for the public service announcement on snoring, I'm sure that a lot of spouses will thank you & sleep a little easier tonight!!! Perhaps you can touch on a subject that is a huge problem for some people, chronic flatulence!!!! Just a thought. Thanks for sharing another fun video!! 🤪🤕🥴👍👍
Before I got a BMW I didn't think much of BMWs , I have got to say they are pretty nice cars. The Z4 with 280,000 miles is testament to the quality build of the Z4.
@@ElliottAlvis Haha, yes you're not embarrassed I remember your cameo in WatchJRGo's Passat scrapping video ua-cam.com/video/VAaqfwot8Yk/v-deo.html Elliott Alvis You can see my underwear at around the 13:07 mark. you're welcome everybody.
I was recently sent the wrong part on a drop ship for my SAAB. They sent me a Üro water fitting for a 9000 instead of my cargo tie downs for my 9-5. When I contacted the owner of the site, he said "Hell no I don't want you to pay for shipping back, and I do not want a Üro part sent back to me. I'd rather lose a bit of money than have that part in my warehouse." Lol. Good luck with the Üro part! The owner of the site chose to have me throw away the Üro part vs. getting it back. Lol
@@ElliottAlvis yeah, I'm new to the Euro scene too. I've quickly learned from the community that Professional Parts Sweden, and Üro, are not reputable. It makes me worry because in the back of my wagon, there is assorted Pro Parts & Üro parts under the false floor. So I wonder what the previous owner has under the hood waiting for me. Lol
Wow Elliott you are vastly improving in the video department. Nice to see you handling your own installs. Pretty soon you'll be doing an LS3 swap on the FreeMW M550iLX
You do a great job transitioning & correlating your theme word for each project within your videos. I'll be looking forward to when you start getting sponsorships how you'll seamlessly incorporate it into your video. It'll be interesting if/when Manscaped sponsors you, LOL
I cannot locate those 2 cables for the life of me. I have an amp where that hole is. The most important part of the video is explaining the install process, not just the end result.
$225 for the BlueBus? I mean it's slick and all, keeps the car all stock but wow. I was looking for something for my 335 since the bluetooth on that only seems to work for the phone calls, not music. But it does have an AUX port! So I one one of those little $10 USB bluetooth adapters, plugged the cable into my AUX, and it all sits nicely in the center hand rest. Works on any car with a USB and an AUX like a Malibu maybe..(Edit:Ok didn't see about the steering control and track name thing, now I want one...)
Someone from Wichita bad drivers Facebook page posted bout your crash and for some reason called it a “$100,000 bmw” 😂 sorry to hear bout your car tho, hope you good
@@ElliottAlvis Um, yes, actually. Is that weird? I understand if that's a little creepy, but we're genuinely appreciative to see unashamed representation like yours out there!
You're selling us short here, I think you put more than 35% into this one. Maybe you'll inspire Hoovie to do 15% of the work on his hoopties, at least the easy stuff that's right on top, anyway.
7:39 - Wait, you're not... *unsub* LOL j/k BTW, is that the Saramonic wireless mic? If so, are you using the included lav or do you use a different one? I just received mine and I haven't tested it out yet.
@@tass2001 That's the type of information they should have on the first page of their website, not tech specs. Who cares? Tell me the cool stuff it can do. I get it techies like to tech, but that's not how you sell things to most people.
@@ElliottAlvis sorry to say it but uro part are trash. ive owned a dozen bmws rebuiilt a few. i never used them more than once. its cheap for a reason. but, best of luck to ya. i did hear they have lifetime warranty on some parts now. also use fcp euro for parts everything is lifetime. im shocked rockauto actually sent the right part.
Also called Motory Notary now with 35%+ willing to work as a mechanic! :)
Yes, it’s my new feature! 😂
I do love a HANES briefs 🩲 man!
It’s a fantastic choice of underwear
Ah, Elliott is a Hanes man.
I go for Tommy Hilfiger m'self. 5:33
Ooh fancy pants. Literally.
This video answered the question we all had…….tidy whities.
They give me the range of motion I need to do my into jump.

Mitchell, I appreciate your kind words as always! I love that you watch the videos all the way to the end!
And the Motory Notary wears "tightie whities"...thanks for another great video Elliott!
I noticed that too!!! We see London we see France, we see Elliott's underpants!!! 😮😬
Yes yes, its true. I wear tightie whtities
Nice videos as always. Have you always been a tighty whities guy?
Long as I can remember 😎

@@ElliottAlvis always
Yes!! 2 uploads 1 week!
Heck yeah Scott. I’m back!
i was going through my late fathers garage last night and found a new wiper motor in a box just waiting to be put on the 64 el camino, I miss my dad but at least he left parts to be put on his car
I’m sorry for your loss. But that’s nice that he left some parts for you.
Look at this! Elliott replacing a part by himself!
I see some improvements here....lol
Right? I’m growing up right before your eyes! Lol
Just sold my Z4. Loved that car.
I loved mine too. Unfortunately it got totaled on Saturday 😔

Ah, good idea for another public service announcement. Thanks for watching Christopher. Have a good weekend!
At 4:25, I honestly felt like I was watching a video from CNET with Brian Cooley. That was a perfect transition, EA
Before I got a BMW I didn't think much of BMWs , I have got to say they are pretty nice cars. The Z4 with 280,000 miles is testament to the quality build of the Z4.
It really is! I have been very impressed with my experience so far.
Damn my 39K on my Z4 pales in comparison lol.
Interesting... You're wearing the same brand of underwear I wore in high school.
Ha! Was going to also comment; Underwear shot! haha
@@DB-ul2zd Ha!! I just had to rib him a little since he's such a nice guy and his videos are refreshingly squeaky clean.
I'm not embarrassed, they are comfortable and serve their purpose well

You can see my underwear at around the 13:07 mark. you're welcome everybody.
I have used Rock Auto for working on my bro in law's Lexus GS300. For my BMW, FCP Euro. Can't argue with the lifetime replacement warranty.
you and jake are making me glad I bought a 1980's Porsche 928
Thats a rare statement! lol

So Jealous of the weather! Perfect to have the roof down! So much better than here in the UK! Great video!
It’s so cool to see how much you enjoy the process of improving your cars. Glad you “won” with the air pump! Nice work...
Thanks mom!
And a big thumbs up for the timestamps! A much appreciated feature!
I always get a kick out of your custom plates. Keep up the good work!
The Real Carwives of Wichita- Elliot, Jake, JR, Hoovie, a Wizard, and a Car Ninja.
lol true!!!
Isn't Westin Champlin in the Wichita area also?? Can't forget him...
Someone call a network executive asap
The real car guys of Wichita sound better IMO
Turn the Malibu into a LeMons racer.
It should be fun. You, JR, Tyler and Jake could make a great LeMons team.
That’s a great idea!
Wow Elliott you are vastly improving in the video department. Nice to see you handling your own installs. Pretty soon you'll be doing an LS3 swap on the FreeMW M550iLX
Haha, thanks Clif! I did all of my own work in the previous video too. I’m growing up! 😂
Elliot rocking The Newsboys... Nice!
Haha, yeah I pulled that out of the FreeMW
@@ElliottAlvis that's awesome. The things you find in used cars. I found throwing knives in my last Jeep.
@@rlessmeier haha, woah! I bet that was a fun find.
Good Job Elliott.. Keep up the hard work!
Thanks Wesley!
i think youve helped me make my mind up for a project car for my channel elliott lol, great work man!
Loving the intro and well done with cracking on with it
Thanks dude, I really love this car. I am so excited to keep improving it!
You do a great job transitioning & correlating your theme word for each project within your videos. I'll be looking forward to when you start getting sponsorships how you'll seamlessly incorporate it into your video. It'll be interesting if/when Manscaped sponsors you, LOL
Oh buddy, I can only HOPE that Manscaped sponsors me one day. I’d build the whole video around it.
Mineral Auto to the rescue once again! Please tell me the new magnet went on the FreeMW!
They forgot my magnet in this shipment! I was so sad.
@@ElliottAlvis Oh no! That's so disappointing!
i love this guys humor its hilarious
I cannot locate those 2 cables for the life of me. I have an amp where that hole is. The most important part of the video is explaining the install process, not just the end result.
Love the video, looking forward to the one with Ninja!
It’ll be up tomorrow!
Simple Green, EverGreen!
I didn’t even put that together! 😱
Now is time to make a meme with a large bottle of Simple Green blocking the Suez canal
Ha it’s Auto content from Kansas day, Hoovie, Josh and Mr. Alvis himself
We are on the same cycle 💁🏻♂️😂
great vlog JR...
I was wondering that that noise was thank you
elliots next investment a professional toolbox and compressor
I have those things, they are in the background lol
Your Bluebus might stay connected for longer if you fasten it down, instead of relying on the wiring. You could even try double sided tape.
That’s exactly what I did! I just didn’t show it. I double sided taped it to the back wall
Dang the intro music had me thinking I was watching a chef John video.
I really enjoy your humor and content. I think your secondary air pump could of been fixed with Simple Green.
oooo you might've been right Mark. I should've tried Simple Green first. I could've saved myself like $100!
No need to apologize for the sound, as an earphone user I didn't mind it. The tinnitus I live with is _much_ higher pitched.
Haha, glad I could provide a much more soothing tone for you
Please fix the headlights. Either get a pair of 3.0 (silver inlays) or 2.5 (black inlays).
I'd love to! The cheapest replacement lights I can find are $300-$500 each 😱
Looking Good
Thanks buddy!

Yeah it’s pricey, but it’s quality and the factory integration is unbeatable.
@@ElliottAlvis And it's all open source! Mad respect for that.
335 implies you have an E9x? Look at the Combox retrofit from BMW :)
@@tass2001 Yep! 2009 335xi and I think it's just great. I'll to look into the Combox thing, I had never heard of it. Thank you!
Someone from Wichita bad drivers Facebook page posted bout your crash and for some reason called it a “$100,000 bmw” 😂 sorry to hear bout your car tho, hope you good
Yeah that would be Mr. Hoovie himself! He was having a laugh and it made its way around the world 😂. Thanks for your kind words though!
I still use the antiquated stereo technology in my car. Ye olde compact discs, what else am i gonna do with them.
Next thing on the z4 ...RIMS !!!!!!!!!! Please
Trust me, I know! These rims are awful lol
Second! I love these Z4 how tos!
Thanks Sock! I love this car.
I heard Urination Bob gets all his parts from Üro///Parts.
Hey, don't listen to the naysayers in the comments, tighty whities are the best underwear, especially Hanes!
Your username checks out. Did this video get shared to a tighty whities forum or something? Lol

@@hanesluvver5990 is it on Reddit? Where is the forum? And I’ve got more content for you today! 😂
@@ElliottAlvis yes lol it's actually just r/tightywhities XD and yeah I checked it out, cool seeing you work on that older car, it's older than I am!
@@ElliottAlvis or did you mean more content as in your tighty whities waistband peeking out? I did see it a couple times lol 😂
hi Elliott, where did you get the Bluebus item please, Thanks Tony. Blue callipers = good taste.
Mineral auto 😂
It’s their formal name 😂
More air and oxygen more performance, take off your muzzles!
Elliott repairing and replacing stuff? Watch out Scotty Kilmer lol
Right? I’m cruising that way
Elliot I am looking for the the passenger seat sensor bypass for my Z4 2005 E85 European configuration. Any suggestions?
Those are not the same cars, the one in Vegas is an E86, yours is an E85
When are you going to change the rims!
Working on it! The M pars don’t fit like I thought they would.
Please tell me where you got the rims
Where did you get the rims, sir
So how’s the sound quality of it with music ?
You're selling us short here, I think you put more than 35% into this one. Maybe you'll inspire Hoovie to do 15% of the work on his hoopties, at least the easy stuff that's right on top, anyway.
Hey, let’s hope! Lol
Nice 👍🏻
Thanks David!
Rip car :( what happen bro
Someone pulled out in front of me. Nothing I could do unfortunately 😔
wow z4
Air pump is just fancy talk for needs a turbo
True 💯
I like that NASA shirt... do you think that bluebus would work with an E92? It doesn't explicitly list it on their webpage.
It will not work on an E92. Look at the BMW Combox retrofit instead.
so did u just rip the carpet?
I carefully peeled it to it’s limits. But I didn’t rip it.
Which one of these repairs caused you to total your Z4 in ICT?
bluebus i hope for it to change my life lol
It’s a great product!
@@ElliottAlvis how has it been for you since this video using it?
But now the World Wide Web wants to know were you that guy who got wedgies in school
For wearing tightie whities 😂
Good looking car, too bad its messed up now lmao
Is this the car that got wrecked today? 04/24/21???
yes
@@Twister-V1 Glad he is ok...
I'm saying I wanted butter on the engine, but I'm not saying I didn't want it either.
I can’t butter this engine. It’s already too smooth 😎
@@ElliottAlvis DOH! It was supposed to say I'm not saying I wanted butter lol
@@ralphlongo1975 I was picking up what you were putting down. Don’t worry
Does the wife mind you wearing tighty whities? Mine has tried to introduce boxers into my rotation but I’m sticking to my Hanes lol
My wife doesn’t like them either. But I think she’s given up. Stay strong Ricky! 💪🏻
7:39 - Wait, you're not... *unsub* LOL j/k
BTW, is that the Saramonic wireless mic? If so, are you using the included lav or do you use a different one? I just received mine and I haven't tested it out yet.
Yes it is the Saranonic mic! I use the included lav and just the unit itself if it’s really windy. It works great!
Don’t you wish you could have done the work that day? Hindsight. 🤔.
How’s the insurance going? 👍
great video. wheels, wheels, wheels need to go
Yes they do, big time. They are an eyesore.
@@ElliottAlvis the 5 spoke look good y not paint them or a nice powder coat
Follow because hot and I need to learn how to fix my silver 3er
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
🙏🏻
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Does the BlueBus thingy allow you to change tracks using the head unit buttons?
Yes, and the steering wheel controls.
Yeah! It’s really amazing. It even displays track names on the display.
Steering controls work? Ok, now the price makes more sense..
@@Bill_Hartnett - It also does fancy stuff, like retrofitting "one touch" blinkers, auto door lock/unlock and show you caller ID for incoming calls.

First!
Heck yes Paul!
Ürno idiot for buying that part! ;)

You really need to save the Malibu if you can. Give it to some broke college kid.
I’m going to try again to save it
seaaaaaaaa4? as zee means sea in dutch
Haha, I didn’t know that!

I didn’t know!
@@ElliottAlvis you may be fine though. UROs are like hit and miss at times.

No more videos until you get rid of those god awful rims. It is a travesty to drive such a beautiful car only to be let down by those rims.
I know. It’s super embarrassing
Sounds like a dog whistle? Unless there's something important you've not told us about you, you will not be able to hear one
I can hear them. I also hear switching power supplies. Many people can hear sound above 20kc.
I can hear a dog whistle. Maybe not as strongly as a dog can, but it’s not silent when someone blows one.
This didn't age well.
