I've never seen one. Typically Thule uses square tubing and Yakima uses round tubing. I know I've seen tandem bike carriers from Thule in the past. Carlos.

Their bike carriers fit both round and rectangular cross bars, and you can even choose a couple of colors, if black doesn't do it for you. Yakima is now making a slick, but somewhat complicated, tandem carrier that pivots out, allowing the bike to be loaded a lot easier. I saw one recently, and it looked like the clips would allow it to fit either shape crossbar. Tom K.

Bentley E30 manual, page 13-32: "Installation is the reverse of removal. Lubricate the inner surface of the axle nut with oil. Torque the inner CV joint internal-hex-head bolts to 58 to 63 Nm (42 to 46 ft. lb.). Torque the axle nut to 195 to 210 Nm (144 to 155 ft. lb.) and install a new lockplate." It is curious that it is not in the table at the end of the chapter, but it is there.

The Sport Evo cloth? http://www.bmwmregistry.com/faq/E30_M3_Sportevo_seats.jpg If so I suspect they're quite pricey. Carlos. 93 325is 88 325is __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
