ECS Tuning is on back order and I don't want to spend $80 on the BMW tool.

Thanks!

^^ no. the N54 needs a special thin wall socket or it won't fit. Some people have grinded it down to make it work but I rather not.

That WON'T work. Like i said the N54 needs a thin wall socket. I've changed enough spark plugs in the past to know what i need.

At any rate i just bought the socket i need on amazon.
