Follow the link above, it is an awesome write up. RTABs are easy peasy...as long as you have the right tool. I'd suggest the BMW RTAB tool which can be rented from several BMW part vendors. There are copy tools, which are less expensive to rent...but they are much more difficult to use (one in particular requires you to cut off the tab on the bushing). I know because I rented the cheap tool...and my BMW mechanic buddy was swearing at me all night.:eyecrazy
The tool makes quick work of pulling the bushing out and putting the new one back in.
