In Mississippi, they also tax on the value of the car, not what you paid for it. If you stop and think about it, that makes sense. Otherwise you'd have people beating the system by understating their...

My '95 318i had this issue everytime it was driven in the rain. My '03 325i sporatically has the issue as well. You'd think they'd eventually fix it. Guess not.

Yeah, what York said. You'll have to manuever it a little to get the bracket to release from the threads of the bolt.
