Yes, if you want to fully remove the axles, with the plate on you won't be able to see where they mate into the front diff / half shaft to get the pry bar in there. The higher you lift the car the more room you'll have to pry (I barely had any room last time). For getting them in the diff, put the opening in the circlip up at 1200 and give it one true push and it will go right in.
The bolts on the plate are torque to yield, so if reused a bunch they don't hold well. There's a long thread on these bolts. BMW is hoarding the remaining stock, charging appx $70 each for these lousy bolts. In that thread Andrew posted some equivalent hardware from Belmetric that can be reused over and over. The bolts are nice I can link them if you aren't able to find it.
