Found - Tii Air Filter/Cannister mounting brackets

[hanksjim1]

I can't find a part number for these (if you have it please email me)...I need a clean set to mount my Ti airbox (I know I could fabricate, but would prefer the original item)...anyone have a rusted Tii hulk they could cut them off of? Willing to pay reasonable price + shipping

Howdy Hank,

I have the same project pending and also send an email to Mr. Martinez without any luck.

Did you made any progress on sourcing these brackets?

Good luck

Other than hit a junkyard or keep on eye on folks here that score a Tii rust bucket willing to part out, I guess the only alternative is to ask someone to take measurements and fab up a set. Let me know if you come up with a source or any otehr suggestions...I will do the same!

Ok will do.

I will visit two BMW repair centers that have some 02's on their salvage lot and also send an email to Laurens Manders in the Netherlands to see if he can helps out since the Ti was a euro version.

A fellow 02FAQ'er did respond to a previous email and sold the Tii brackets for $25. We have at least a price reference.

Keep you posted

Super...if you happen to find several sets, let me know...I will gladly pay you if you find a couple of donor cars...I will do likewise.

Wonder what happened to Sherman Martinez? He was very active on this board for a long time.

Howdy,

It has been a long time.

2002AD will make a few brackets for me based on the 2002Tii air filter.

Keep you posted

Jean -

Jim's ti project has been "transferred" to the East Coast to me (another Jim).

I was able to get the body section with brackets from a very rusty Polaris 74tii courtesy of Jason Gipson (Eurotrash). After I locate a suitable car, the brackets will be welded to the fenderwell.

Howdy Jim

That is great news that you found The real brackets.

Can I ask you a favor to measure the dimensions of the brackets?

This will allow me to work with a local welder instead of waiting 6 months on 2002AD

Very much appreciated

JP

Will try to measure them this week. Note they are not just standard sheet metal pieces, but have bent edges for strength.

two young children similar to both Stone and Markmac in the general discussion section. I responded to both Jean Paul and Jim. However, after I had some of the early intermittent wiper kits some time ago Jim responded that he wanted one and I emailed him with instructions on payment(then waited over a month) and he defaulted. Whenever I have an occurence like that I usually don't deal with those people again, period. Jean Paul I also responded to you and you wanted to see pictures of the brackets. I just really don't have the time these days to take pictures of parts that a picture won't do any justice to. Having dealt with 2002s (mainly tiis) I know what I am talking about and don't sell anything that I would not use on my own cars. There was mention of wanting a part from a california car so that it wouldn't be rusty, that is what you would get from me as all of the cars I have parted out were from california.

Thank you,

Sherman - can you please clarify which "Jim" you are referring to? I did purchase and install one of your intermittant wiper kits a few years ago. Still works great!
