No. I installed a full OE M Technic kit with my car on the ground the entire time.

It's just using a torque wrenched and clipping the clips in right? How long it take you

Who sells this kit and I assume it is complete with all hardware? I searched for Technic but could not find a kit for my '04 525i.


Thanks.

I don't know if they still make the original BMW version so you may have to look for used. There replicas tha you can get new but they are shorter than OE.

Thanks.
It does not come with hardware. However, if you remove your current hardware carefully such as the clips and fasteners, you can reuse them.
