Dimensionally, the ipd bushings are identical to the originals. Really identical. They're a *very* snug fit, by design, and though they take a bit of persuasion, they shouldn't be trimmed or otherwise modified to fit into place.

I just did them on my 444 a few weeks ago. No more or less difficult than installing the oem rubber.

If yours are now absent some material, they may well not last as long as they should. Keep an ear out for bonks snd clunks.

What did the installer modify?
