Default E46(330i) Brake Master Cylinder?

Has anyone done this upgrade? I need to replace my master cylinder and I need to know if the E46(330i) will fit so I can order the part. Help.

Default Found the answer

The E46 master cylinder can be adapted but is not a direct bolt on application. The best way to do it is to upgrade to the E36 M3 master cylinder.

I'm getting the parts Friday and I will be getting the upgrade done over the weekend.
