the ring install. I hope David C. puts it on e38.org. I think the rings adds a nice touch to show off the pedals, don't you? See what I mean about splitting the cluster would be easier with 2 people? Or maybe an extra hand? That was the hardest part, hoping you're not gonna break anything. Now that I'm used to looking at mine, when I see a 7 without 'em they look plain to me! Again, very nice install instructions..
