Hi all, sorry if this question has been asked before. I couldn't find an answer after doing some research on this in this forum.

Can an non-M E60 instal a stock M5 quad exhaust? Mine is a 525 LCi model and currently on custom made quad exhaust and wish to change to a genuine M5 quad exhaust as an M5 owner wishes to sell it off...

Thanks

You might want to do some more searching of the forum. I know I've seen it mentioned here before. I think the battery box is in the way for the non M5 e60s so would require some major mods.

nope correct me if i am wrong but the M5 does not have a spare tire and the space was eliminated for the quad exhaust. so it wont work.

Unless if you want cut the spare tire space off, you might use M5 exhaust. Straight installation: NOPE!
