OEM alarm kit deal...
I was looking to order the OEM alarm kit. Upon searching I found that BMW of Morristown, NJ had it on ebay for $195 plus shipping. It will be here today. I'll let you guys know how it turns out. If it is as advertised, that's a pretty good deal, I think.

There should be some coding involved to get it to work properly. I think the light will blink once you put it in but the rest of the functions are disabled.

Thanks for the link! I've actually been searching for this, $199 seems like a great deal!

It's installed
Alright it's installed! The light blinks fast when I lock the car. If I lock it twice it goes to the normal pulse of blinking every second or two. My guess is that its because the car has yet to be programmed.

I did the install in about 35 minutes. It's actually quite easy. You will have to visit a dealer for coding after the install, or find someone local that is able to do coding.

Mine took me about 45 minutes. Its easy. What stinks is that BMW lists the whole install with coding at a 1hr job...my dealer says it will be the 1hr minimum charge for coding. I think in the end I will come out cheaper because my dealer wouldn't sell the parts for less than MSRP so that plus the 1hr of labor would be more than my $207 for parts plus 1hr of labor for a 10min coding job. I don't have it coded yet...
