watched you for years, Now back watching these as I am about to pick up a 1 series !
Just bought my dream first car a BMW 118i M-Sport! Sooooo currently binge watching your channel👍
Paint code is on small panel when you open drivers door Mat 🤟🏻
1M Bumper,so much more aggressive looking,I have msport and changing it to 1M with the your help,keep the cool mods coming,getting them led sidelights cheers
Cheap and easy mod for the Shark Fin, but be aware that the seal isn't great using the 3m tape provided, and water can get in under the Aerial and start to corrode the roof! (and the electrical connection) as it just sits there underneath and slowly rots. What I did was to use some silicon sealant too, just to be safe. I have done this mod to my Seat Leon, and my Mini R56 (on my channel) if anyone wants to take a look :)
Bro, i love these vids, im 17 but getting the 118d version in March. Keep doing stuff so i get an idea of what to do to mine
Yeah literally these videos are so helpful
You probably are aware but just worth saying: make sure the timing chain issue has been addressed! Very common on the n47 diesel engines iirc
You will never get insured on one
@@jordanlever7667 im 19 and got one 🤔
@@jordanlever7667 £298 a month tho 😣😣😣
1M PLEASE. IT WILL BE EPIC
I love this channel. there really isn't any other content like this about the BMW 1 series.
Your altercation to this e87 is an amazing transition. Keep up with the good work!
Glad you finally changed the side lights. Personally I don’t like the new fin. It makes the rear end look weird with your spoiler. I stuck a really small Carbon bee sting aerial on my E81 which makes it look (in my opinion) more unique than all the other generic shark fins out there. Keep up the good work though, at the end of the day it’s you car so only you have to like it!
I like what u have done to the car looks great
Definitely do a disc clean up and calliper spray video, can get some cool calliper decals off eBay (don’t do em ref)
Hello Mat
Can you make a video that contains changing the antifreeze coolant for bmw e87?
Thanks!!
I always watch your vids keep up the good work you inspire me to improve my bmw ⚡️🏁🔥
Should’ve got the dynamic indicators. The sweeping ones
looks weird imo.
The dynamic smoked wing mirror indicators are good if you have done it already.
1M bumper 👍🏼
Paint code might be in the boot under the carpet on a sticker from the factory
Paint code should be on the inside centre panel when you open the drivers door, it is on my 1 series 👍🏻
Love the rims
I unscrewed my shark fin then took my original areal out and put it inside the shark fin screwed it all together then used the 22mm nut inside the car to bolt the whole unit to my roof as well as the 3m tape supplied
Paint code on your drivers side b pillar sticker 👍 Stuck my sharkfin on with windscreen adhesive, tape won’t last. Great videos, really enjoy ‘em
Hy mat can you please tell me how you made the dual zone clima working (i change it from retro to dual and dosent work properly) thanks
I saw you struggling with that brake line.. that happened because the nut was seized to the line.. it’s an easy fix for a garage and cheap. You can try abit of brake fluid on the joint that may have separated the nut from the line and stopped that happening..
hy man nice video ..may i know ur tires measurements please ?
These Videos are Huge mate! Been watching the complete 1 Series. You've given me bunch of ideas. It's kind of inspirational. Nice to see what can be done for okay money for normal blokes like us.
I would love for you to change the Head Unit to an Android Model. Been looking myself but I'm quite doubtful of what to get and how to get cracking. I bought a 1 DIN radioplayer and this totally did not match so i lost about 160 pounds. Will you be changing the radio to a aftermarket Android model someday? You can get pieces to fit on the dashboard instead of the useless dashboard storage space. Also get an iDrive unit for about 250 pounds. But Like I said, I would be so happy should you make an How TO about this.
Cheers mate!
Colour code in the door either schwarz 2 or black sapphire I reckon.
Hey mate colour code also might be under the back seats. You just yank them up and they clip off
Is it possible to get the side indicators somewhere else since they dont ship outside of the UK?
Nice video bro
I have a question
How to update navigation new maps 2019-2020
Coz in my bmw series 1
My navigation it’s in 2010
And I can’t update
Can you suggest me something or help me?
Thanks
What does Mat do for a living?
Should have bought Alhambra / Sharan handbrake springs.... Stronger more pull 👌
I had led side indicators for few months, then half of them stopped working. Then i just smoked old side indicators. Unfortunately didn't passed MOT, so had to sand them back to original white...
AMAZING mods thnxs man;)
Quick question mate: where you get the angel eyes headlights from please? Thanks
Get the bmw 1 series e82 m tech bumper, i got it in my e87 and it look a lot better than the e87 m sport bumper
Track day would be sick
Yesss it's going down!!
Hi Mat! Iam thinking of buying a BMW 116 i Advantage 116hk from 2005. Is it good car? What should I ask the seller of problems I should stay away from. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Hello mat when are you going to upgrade the wing mirrors to ones with indicator on?
I'll look into it bro
Hi man what are size of the rims and tires??
Bro, pls dyno the car I would love to see the results of the chip tuning
Do you have a link to the wrap you have used on the inside of the 1 series x
Hey man I tried it with the shark fin but for me the glue didnt really stick to the top. Do you have any advices or tips for me or like an alternative way?? Greetings from germany :)
I brought a repeater but it has no connection from it to the cars cable ? It just has a 2 pin slot. What do I need to buy to connect the two ?
whattup bro, recently discovered your channel since I'm interested in a 116i. I don't drive enough to buy a diesel and I live in NL (rip wallet if owning a diesel). What are your thoughts on some of the petrol engines like the 116i (2004-2011)?
Heb je hem al
Do you also ship to the Netherlands?? I've been looking for a fitting sharkfin but all of them are to low to fit, this one looks bigger so i want to try it again!
Great vids I've recently purchased e91 m pack and lot of the stuff you're posting are helpful for me too! Bless up bro 😇🤗😎
Hi Mat. I love your videos and I love your BMW. I also have a gray metallic e87 and I would like to order a few things like an antenna. Do you also supply abroad? Well thank you.
you have to put a satnav on it, and try to smoke the lights again ,
1M BUMPERRRRRRRRR 🤙🏾
Nice mods there
1M bumper all the way
Just bought 1!!
Do you only ship in the UK?
Will 19 inch alloys go on 1 series msport 2011 ? Thanks
Bro, do you also ship to the netherlands???
is just because of u I bough this car THANK U !
Hey Mat, what size rims/tires are on your car ? Currently looking for bigger rims for my TT :))
i like you videos Bro
I have e87 120i one
Thank you
Colour codes on the door on e87s (generally I think)
Are you related to Lee Lockwood..🤔?
pipbaileypbsh was going to say the exact same
Everything looks same as Lee Lockwood Chanel even they face and clothes 🤔🤔🤔
Which vinyl wrap do you use?
Mine is white so not sure how good the black side marker will look and it’s a 2009 so it’s already got a shark aerial😂
Color code is closer to the door lock on the driver side
I love what u did to ur car mate looks amazing
Do you reckon there are any 1 series 1.6 diesel from 2006-2009 ? As i want a tiny engine that doesnt use much in a few months whrn i get my drivin license 🧐🧐 amazing job u doing mate
Avoid all 1 series with small engines too many problems with then
anees miah yes mate i would like a 120d one 2.0diesel but insurance is expensive so id rathee pay gas more than insurance
Is the signal with the shark fin any good?
Litterally same as before
Does anybody know if the aerial from series 3 E90 will fit to E87?
Also is there a chance to get a new link for the Aerial? I am looking for one
Gave u a sympathy 👍 for the stranded TT 🏝🏜
Haha legend 😂👍
Was the bmw you’re first car ?
146k views for this.. might just record myself at work 😀
Does anyone know if you change the stereo from a pre lci to an lci one do you get the lci chime when you open the door etc
what year of this car?
how long does delivery often take from your website? :) just curious, thanks!
figured I should mention i'm also from the UK
what spoiler that?
How did you cut it? The shark thing
Just ordered mine guessing with a knife 😂
@@zine-eddinegaoua i did with a lighter and a very hot knife xD
@@kjubit715 oh wow great idea thanks
that focus tho :)
Go 1M bumper i got in my car and i liked
Black the badges
BRO PLEASE DO THE 1M BUMPER, why go simple with it? The M sport bumper is too basic
it does look weird. Can't you just find a shorter antenna?
Are u from NI
What happened with the paint on the spoiler
It's a wrapp
@@MatArmstrongbmx yes just watched you wrap it in another vid.looks good on the bmw
I have m4 bumper on my e82
Mate I would be more worried about the paint finish on the wing and spoiler it’s shocking
Why am I watching this🤣 i don't even drive a beamer
Hey rims name?
Subscribed ages ago but my first comment on your channel.
Now im all for supporting your channel and understand you charging a slight premium on products you advertise, fit and sell.
However charging £30 for a £3 aerial is just bending people over.
Disappointing...
I'm not forcing anyone to buy it. Unfortunately this virus stuff has made shipping crazy from China so I'm forced to do it as I said you don't have to buy it
I would of cleaned underneath the indicator before putting the new one on. Nobody will see it but I’d know. 😂
Yeah I Litterally thought why didn't I do that when I watched it back haha
Black the wheel bmw badges
I find it funny amount people waste money on cars like these but I do know u can get tts cheap
What's the point? BMW driver don't indicate anyway ...
my sister just bought one for 6000euros
It has a 200k km
was it worth tje money gonest opinion?
Yap this little shark think look better then this antena in the middle of car
if you type the last 7 digits of ur VIN on www.mdecoder.com/ it will tell you the color code :) i have the 3 door e81 loving this build thread, cheers for the website!
Why is there so much orange peel on this car 😂
You tell me 🤷♀️
Here’s a video with all the CC-ID fault codes EXPLAINED very useful for BMW owners ua-cam.com/video/6NGWbzCmFrM/v-deo.html
