I emailed Britalman but they said they never tried putting it in a 545 so don't know for sure.
Britalman Intake compare with pics for the Dinan Intake.
Anyone here familiar with engine bays from both cars? You guys think it'll work?

The engine bay is quite similar between the e60 and e63. I think it'll work on the 545i. I suggest you go for the Dinan. I had the Britalmans and I'm losing 1 full second from 0-60mph, without any heat shield your engine performance is more likely to lose power. I still have the Britalman intake, use it for less the 200 miles. I sell to you a low price you are interested in trying it. PM me for prices.
