Anyone try one of these yet, ecs tuning sells them I wonder how useful they are? Not very expensive and seem like they should work good.

My Ride: 2004 545i - 6 speed manual (July 04 build), silver-grey/black, sports package std equipment (18", active roll, active steering, adaptive headlights), premium sound, bluetooth enabled, folding rear seat, lumbar, 3m hood/bumper protective film, rear tint, euro reflectors.
good idea, I think I will try one.
It does not seem like a big deal though, I just put my floor jack underneath the slot and not had any problems. Looks like it would just sit on the jack pad.

My Ride: 530I Silver gray with gray leather with Premium Package, Logic 7 Premium sound system with Ipod interface, xenon adaptive headlights, Active steering, Power retractable rear sunshade, Comfort seats, Cold weather package and M5 OEM 166 wheels, Sprintbooster. Ceramic Tint all around, Bilstein Sports shocks with Eibach springs, Brake performance Rotors and Axxis ceramic pads.
Certainly would prevent damaging the jacking point. I already damage mine from using an aligator jack.

Try cutting a piece of wood 2 3/16" X 1 3/16" with the necessary height and you are all set.
