...so here is my Dilemma Bav. Auto directions state to install the bushing so that the snap ring is on the outside of the caliper. BW's directions are the exact opposite and states to install bushing with snap ring side on the inside of the caliper which looks like more of a PITA to get the snap ring on.
My rears have been installed with snap ring facing out. Who is right? does it really matter?... Anyone been a long term user of these bushings...how are yours installed?

Used them on 2 diff cars now including my E90 M3. I have mine snapped on the inside following BW direction. My suggestion would be to call BW and speak with them. Personally that would be your best bet (to confirm or otherwise).
Your pads are going to thank you
