Hi guys, Replaced the gearbox mounts on my 318i M10. There was just one thing i neglected to make a mental note of. There are small metal extrusions next to the stud on the side that bolts to the box. Now i assumed the mounts went in thread closest to the box and the small metal nipple bit goes facing out.



Can anyone clarify?

Cheers
