Hmm, Vince has you keep the threads for his products. You drill up into the trunk with a drill bit that's the same size as the minor diameter of the subframe bolts (~10mm for M12x1.5) and then tap the rest of the insert so you can run the longer studs through. I'm not familiar with the install process for that brace, but I would keep the threads if possible.
Yeah I'd much prefer the solution that you describe. Not keen to make a no-going-back change like drilling the thread out. Will do some more investigation - as you suggest drilling smaller and tapping seems preferable to me.

Before installing the sect 1, I routed the O2 plugs through a hole in the heatshield (made when I had euro cats) and run along the tunnel, driver side
Hello
Once the pipes are installed, I pulled the O2 plus as far forward as possible, to meet the harnesses that need to be run behind the airbox and down tranny/clutch line area (already done in 2014). They'll reach a bit past the tranny brace. It's actually a good area for them to meet the harnesses as there are already some clips for the wiring of the tranny sensors.
🤞
I think this is the part I'm not understanding. Are you just showing the process of where the male ends of the harnesses got routed through ?
Yes, at least in that post, there are no pics of any of the routing from engine to transmission as that was done back in 2014. I want to say I had some more pics/info at the time back on m3forum, but when I had to recreate this thread, I don't think I put the info in. I'll check to see if I have any pics from back then. I remember a thread on this forum with more info though, if you want to try searching.
