Anyone wired via tapping to the wire under the sunroof switch panel? Thats how I have it in my M3 and its served me well for almost 10yrs. Id Love to see some pics, and also a proc for removing the sunroof switch panel to access the wire without chewing up the cover panel. Oh, and which color wire to tap in our 1 series? .. In my M3, its the purple one; in an E90 i believe I read its the green/white one.

If I decide to use the fuse box rather than tapping into a wire, is this the add-a-circuit product to use?

I guess Id have to cut off the butt connector and crimp on a female spade for the V-1 to connect to?
