These are one of those things that you tend to forget about, but changing the old and worn out ones for new ones can do wonders to uplift the interior. Its cheap and easy.

This is the one thing that all E36 coupes should have come with. An Armrest.
Right, so the moment i got home today i decided to carry out some work on the M3.
Since i got the car the heater hasnt worked (i knew this when purchased). Neither side changed temp at all, just stuck at cold. I knew this was the heater control valve (HCV), as they are a common failure point as they are easy to block and jam. I purchased some parts from Ray at HellBM, which included a replacement valve.
Its not a hard part to get to on the M3, just a bit tight due to the header tank, and there isnt a lot of space to twist and pull the hoses.
