Not sure if you read this or not but it might help you out if not. I still haven't done it on a Magma atty but it works on two other 510 attys I have from 2 diff vendors. http://www.volcanoecigs.com/forum/for-all-you-drippers-out-there-t1801.html

edit:
just checked my M attys and I can see the wick in all of mine.

so what went wrong with the removal? or do you not know? I haven't messed around with my M attys yet, since they are working fine the way they are. Wondering if you know what went wrong so I know what to avoid when doing mine. But from just looking the seem to look the same as the other 510's I have, so I figured it would be the same.

okay that spring would be the coil, and was it preforming badly as a dripping atty or as a cart atty. If it has no wick in it and you were trying to use as a cart atty, then that would diff. give it bad performance.

I removed the bridge and wick on a lo-res Magma Atty. I would not recommend it. The performance went way down and it was harder to draw. It seems the bridge allows some sort of "flow" pocket that makes the draw easier and fuller. The modded atty also seemed to flood easier, and go from "full" to burnt taste immediately. With the bridge intact, you get a warning and can re drip.

The wicks are on the sides where the coils are connected. I pulled them out and noticed no difference.

The atty still works, but its performance pales in comparison with the unmodded one. I also did not notice much increase in the 'heat" of the vape.

Waste of time and waste of a properly made and properly functioning atty imo.

The de-bridging of attys was not something done on low res attys. This could possibly be why you had a bad experience with it. De-bridging a low res atty would seem like a waste of a perfectly good atty and time. Not to mention that fact that is was also going on and being discussed before the Magma 1.5 low res attys existed. I would highly not recommend this to anyone.
