This is the first time removing the reinforcement plate on a E53 and it is a stupid design for sure of how the bolts have separate nuts. I guess they realized it and changed it to a welded nut on the E70, so much easier on the E70.
I haven't removed the one on my 2001 but the one on the 2005 has welded nuts the bolts go into. Well I don't have to use wrenches on back side when I reinstalled it so its screwing into something fixed on the backside.
