If I had a digicam I would post pictures of it... I believe now i know how it should be done...

If someone would translate I could tell you all how.
Any volenteers?

Ok here is the story.. I just found out how to doit.

You need to totally take off everything from your hood presently.
The front spring attachment , the shocks, the 2 roller things on the hood and the roller catchers on the sides all have to go. Leave the lock and the lock loop. You will need them.
The parts you will need:
1. E36 Hood hinges. The one from a coupe!. Very important that this is from a coupe. I took mine from a Limo and it doesnt work.
2. E34 Shocks from the trunk.
3. E36 Touring shock holders. These I assume you can get from any other car but the guy who did his got them from the touring.

weld the Hood hinges on the corners of the hood. Drill holes in the appropriate places on the body of the car. Mount the shocks in the right place. I think right above the shock tower, but you will see where once you start mounting everything.

You wont need a spring due to the shocks. Nor will you need another lock on the passenger side. The shocks do all of that for you.

I should have my camera next week. Then I can post photos of what not to do. When I am done you will see it when it looks better. I hope.

@Bilal: This translation is pretty accurate. It is not word by word, I hope you didn't mind.


Umbauanleitung für Haubenumbau beim E34 (dass die Haube nach hinten öffnet!)

Man braucht:

1.Die Gelenke von der E36 Motorhaube (wichtig ist, dass die Teile vom Coupé sind.)
2.Zwei Gasdruckdämpfer von einer E36 Touring Heckklappe.
3.Halter für die Gasdruckdämpfer von einem E36 Touring. Könnte auch von anderen Autos passen, muss man probieren.

Also zuerst wird die E34 Haube zerlegt:

Weg müssen:

-der vordere Federmechanismus
-die Gasdruckdämpfer
-die Gleitschienen der Motorhaube an den Seiten incl. Aufnahme derselben.

Der Schließmechanismus vorne kann dranbleiben.

Umbau:

Die Gelenke vom E36 an die Ecken der vorhandenen Haube schweißen.
Anschließend werden für die neuen Gelenke an einer geeigneten Stelle in der Karosserie die Löcher für die Gelenke gebohrt und die Gasdruckdämpfer an der richtigen Stelle platziert. Eine geeignete Stelle ist oberhalb der Federbeindome.
Das ist ersichtlich, wenn man mit dem Umbau anfängt.

Es werden weder die früher vorher vorhandene Feder, noch ein zusätzlicher Verriegelungsmechanismus auf der Beifahrerseite benötigt. Das erledigen die Gasdruckdämpfer.

Just found one 1 key thing. The E-34 shock are not from the trunk. They are the shocks from a E34-Touring. I dont know if a E-36 Touring shock will work but i will find out.
I hope noone else bought the wrong parts. I did already.
:(
