I read a write up on Pelican for an E36: http://www.pelicanparts.com/bmw/tech...ch_Replace.htm

It says the start bolts are near impossible to get to. On an E36 I can see that being an issue - but is it really a problem on an E34 525i?

To the guys who do this **** all the time - are the transmission bolts THAT hard to reach?
