problem installing my guide arms on 335-e92

So I basically have the TRW versions of each of the parts below.



When two different indy shops tried to put them on the 07 e92 they could never get them to align up.

I am considering trying the effort on the 13IS.. any idea why this might not work successfully?

You mention in the header that you have a 335, but the links are for parts for an M3.

But the links state they can be retrofitted.. so do they bolt in or not?

As the third member is the same, (on early 335s which have big center at a min), they should bolton correct?

I cannot confirm this - it says "at your own risk" which likely means that you'll be doing some sort of fab. work - I'm guessing that they do not bolt on without modification.

I have since talked to another e92 owner who has made this swap with no issues on 5 other vehicles using exactly the parts identified above.
