    Don't expect to ever use those feeler gauges again.

          Sounds interesting, you could probably make one fairly easily.

            I've used the allen wrench method before, but having the correct tool always makes it so much nicer...

                            Doing a z3 rack swap tomorrow. Anything I should watch out for? I've heard people use a crowbar and bend the firewall a little. Doable or I have to cut some off?

                              i have only heard of people using a dremel tool to open up the firewall hole and the bracket that holds the boot. bending is not a good idea.

                              if you don't have the engine out, i would recommend pulling the driver's seat out so you have more room to work on the opening. its the worst part of the job.
