Nuts? None required... the bolts screw in to existing threaded holes. I replaced mine with some shiny ones from Home Depot... I'll try and look to see if I have any left in their packages to give you the size/thread.
 
Thanks a lot. dealership will be taking a look at my FX to assess the trade in value next wednesday so i need to have everything back to stock by then.
 
ah come one man. :rofl:I don't know the led thingy you asked. I'm still owed my second cluster back from Acree so it's not like I'm holding out on you. :embarrassed:
 
Is there a 135xi??? :eek:

Crap... no 135xi... only 335i coupe and sedan and convertible, 335xi coupe and sedan, 135i coupe and convertible.

lol. i'm just messin with you man. it was there. i had to take it. i would expect the same from you.

happy friday everyone.
 
sorry to bump this back up, but i put my engine cover on today and apparently i need two bolts for the rear and two nuts for the front. anyone know the size i need for the front ones?

btw, thanks for the heads up on the helix...i am actually looking at the JB3 which hasnt officially released yet..baseline gains of around 80whp/80wtq on a stock ride, and possibly over 100whp/100wtq on a somewhat modded ride. its also undetectable on the radar since BMWs new software versions can detect flashes/tunes so they can void your warranty...to keep them off the hook for doing warranty work when a tune/flash caused the overheating/problem to occur

You can replace the Studs with Bolts. The studs unscrew with a 4 or 4.5 MM socket. Also, you can put two nuts back to back and tighten the top one onto the bottom. Once they're good and tight, unscrew the bottom one and the stud will unscrew with it.
