Coolant Inlet Flange

Has anyone upgraded their coolant inlet flange per this link? Looking to learn from others' experience before I do it as preventative maintenance. It seems pretty straight forward and easy.

Wondered how much they were selling it for so I put "Coolant Inlet Flange" into search the bar on the ECP Euro web site and it returned zero BMW results!

I am planning to do this, but TBH it will not be an easy job to do at all if your flange is not already broken. Because the OE ring clamp is extremely tight and you would have to some how cut it off without damaging the hose.
