Thanks they look nice I was searching the forum and see the BMW pucks. I can't leave them in as I am always trailering the car to the track and not sure if they are easy to remove. How thick are the EE pucks? Thanks!

BMW dealer. I got the thicker ones. I leave them in all the time. My C5 is lowered so I can't see them and I don't race. It was like $15 for 4 and I don't have to worry about lift racks on my rocker panels. I've used them with my lifting jack and they are great.

John I have been using the BMW pucks for about 2 years now. They have held up well and I just saw newer ones that are even thicker than mine.
I use to leave them in all the time, but like you since I trailer now and use T-hooks I just carry a few with me where ever I go. They snap in easily and taking them out I can usually do it by hand or a flat screw driver will pop them right out.
The best part besides working is that they were not expensive so I dont mind losing one.
