Just twist it anti-clockwise. If it's stuck try a small bit of WD40

Fair enough. I had a serious error with the door pin mod last night, locked the door when I got in the car cos I was in the middle of town with loads of drunks etc... drove home.... ah.. how do I get out!

Done this before, my 6n used to have a snapped door pin drivers side - window down, key out of ignition into door (outside obv.) and hey presto! :D if the window doesn't work, you may have a slightly larger issue....

once its properly sorted you wont be chasing m3's you will be comfortably waving them goodbye...and that will make you smile far more than owning an average joe m3, with the money i've spent over the last 6 months I could have a low miler e46 m3 and i dont regret it at all

To be honest, I'd rather have the polo. The image that comes with beemers and audis these days just isn't worth it, plus you could probably leave most of them standing in that little beast!

Red and black maybe? or black with red or blue stitching perhaps. Leather would be good :D or if you really want to go off the rails, neon green, with pink piping and a bright orange steering wheel. Sh*ts and giggles n all that.
