Ohlin R&T for EDC equipped Car

I am planning on buying Ohlin R&T coilovers for my 09 e92 M3. My car has EDC which I plan to get coded out once the coilovers are installed. Since the coilovers are meant for non-EDC cars is there any hardware differences? Do I need to buy anything additional for the install. I was under the impression that the rear shocks for EDC and Non-EDC were different sizes or required extra hardware to install. Any tips or help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just make sure you buy rear shock mounts for a non-EDC M3 car and not a non-M car.

The front should work fine with your existing top hats.

The Ohlins are direct fit and you dont need to change out the rear shock mounts. They include a sleeve that adapts the shock shaft to work on EDC.
