Removing the thermostat is not advised.Its there for a reason.
Removing it wont have cathastrophic effect but the engine wont be running at optimum temp.
Very long time ago, some BMW ( grey import ) had to undergo thermostat change to avoid overheating as it was imported from country with very different climate.
Where to get parts? If u r a sweet talker and a friendly guy, go mixed in owners group. If u r commando type, go to any part shop ask them for quote and when they give u a crazy figure u just said OK order it.The next 1-3 days the parts will arrive and u will be poorer but u can still drives.
