The side pieces of the rear seats do come out allowing for the access to shelf but they pull up and out. The front is a bit harder if it’s just you by yourself doing the job alone like I was. Once I was in there I was glad I went with the M550 springs and knowing I won’t be double guessing the height. Hope it helps!
Good info. If I was to do it myself, I would go with the 550 springs, I just don't have the time so I was looking to find a way to get BMW to do it during my standard maintenance. I understand why they don't want to install aftermarket parts but I don't know any other place I trust enough.
Are there no trust-worthy indy shops near you that can do this install for you?
