Being new to the e53 world, I must add... the e83 (X3) has four stiffener bolts and the nuts are captive. I was disgusted when I went to remove the plate on my e53!
AM.

Better than BMW prices for sure. Thanks for that. Should help those who want to replace them but don't due to cost.

Depending on what one is doing you can remove all bolts except one and then swing the plate out of the way instead of completely removing it. Especially helpful if working alone.

I just ordered a dozen new M10x1.5 - 60mm flange bolts in grade 10.9 (5mm longer than OE) and a dozen flange nuts from Bolt Depot. I found their prices significantly cheaper than Fastenal that I previously referenced. I needed a couple M10 130mm bolts for my junkyard trailer hitch and that led me to needing to place an order.
The bolts are $0.93 and the nuts are $0.21. Shipping is reasonable - I had several other things and the shipping was $6.80 total. https://www.boltdepot.com/Product-De...?product=17513 If you're feeling guilty about re-using your $20 BMW bolts, this would be a much more economical alternative. AM.
