Hi folks. Couple of questions here - I am replacing the black strut tower ties with a triangulated one from Ultra Racing, mainly because the tabs connecting to the strut towers have sheered. I've also noticed that on one of the holes in the tower where the studs come through there is a small hairline crack (thanks LA Potholes) so I got the E46 reinforcement plates. Before I tackle all of this I figured I'd ask you all about my following concerns:
1) Both reinforcement plates are the exact same, they are mirrors of each other and some holes don't line up: - you can see from their design and the pix of the strut towers
2) On the passenger side there is a small hex bolt screwed into the top, where as this has been removed on the driver's side. Any info on what this is and why one is missing and the other is not?
Driver's side
Passenger's side
as you can see, the extraneous holes in the plate don't line up with every hole in the Z4 strut tower but I know the strut studs do. I think I have to remove the hex bolt in question from the passenger side to make it all work.
Can anyone shed some light on this all for me?
