Removed the complete exhaust from the headers back

The rusted/broken-off headers bolts and nuts

Impossible without these if you round the nut

Above you can see the cracks in the rubber of the old guibo

You will need plenty of titanium drill bits to drill-out the broken off headers studs.  I will also recommend replacing the center support bearing if the drive shaft has been vibrating for a long period of time.

Clutch engagement is much more predictable going into 1st gear.  Should prolong clutch life as well.

They only negative aspect would be they are a little squeaky and noisy but for the price and performance its tough to beat
Picture
The oem e46 shifter on the right and the new 545 shifter on the left.  Also a new shifter bearing cup

Picture
545 shifter on the bottom also does not require and plastic washers.  You can see the lip on the 545 shifter compared to the oem e46 shifter
