Steering rack upgrade..

Hi just wanted some help deciding if I should go with Z3 E36 rack or E46 purple tag?

Which is easier to fit and is there like a kit you can buy with everything needed to fit.. Any advice or comments on this I would be grateful :D

Also a fitting guide for both..

Thanks!!!!
