If things were meant to be easy, then I will soon complicate them....

I did both of mine about 4 months ago.
Lived with it for so long and then decided to bite the bullet!!
Probably good that I had otherwise more panic would have ensued.

Sorry Smee, I did it in a rush.
I can't vouch for it but I can say from experience that the original BMW part is rubbish ☺

I have bought both Febi and Meyle carriers and found the Meyle one to be a better fit and feel. The Febi only lasted 14 months, the Meyles have done 2 years and counting. Just my experience.
