I put one in my MT 128i vert and one in my fiancees 128i vert with automatic. They work great. It is a bit involved to pull the console but not hard. Takes about 3 hours for me, not working real hard.

I didn't really look at the underside of the console on the other side, drivers side in the US, but I think you could put one in. At most you would be trimming some plastic on the underside of the console and messing with a L-shaped mounting bracket. My guess is it would be the same as I've done twice now. It was unbolt and rebolt except for cutting the hole.
