              I just spoke to a buddy who lives and breathes iX's....he said I could def use a RWD gasket, and just punch out one more hole to fit. I ordered a rubber gasket one....which I plan on using. Curious if anyone else has done this.

                  I don't believe the bolt spacing is the same. You can't just add another bolt hole.

                  Use some Permatex "Ultra Black"..

                      Don't use a gasket. Use a sealer. BMW did that for a reason.
