Hi guys
I picked up a strut brace on ebay, but didn't notice that it was for a 2003 323f, mine is a 2002.
Will it still fit? I've offered it up but can't figure out how it goes on. I always though It bolted on to the top of the suspension but it seems too short. I've seen a few pics on here and I still don't get it.
Am I just being thick?

Strut brace is sport only as standard. You need the brackets that go on the strut tops to attach the brace which don't come with the other models.

Going to Hijack your post rather than make a new one (sorry!)

What torque do the suspension bolts need to be?
