I can’t remember (it was a decade ago). He sourced all the parts new from BMW, including the steering column cowl, so that would have added to the cost. Using a second hand control stalk and modifying your existing cowl would reduce costs.

srhutch,

Don't suppose you are still making looms for fitting cruise to Z4Ms are you? I'd be really grateful for one if you are

Hi, I could do with one too - assuming you are still doing them?

I am still looking for a stalk (will probably cave next week and spend £200 for one at Sytners), but starting to look into the rest of the job. Unfortunately the pictures on the first post are no longer working, which makes the instructions hard to follow. Can they be restored, or is there a PDF or something floating about with instructions?

Cheers!

Fitting is the same as all other models, except the blue wire to the ecu. It’s probably the easiest version to install though.

Sorry, for not getting back, had a few family issues to deal with. I need to check I have enough bits to make one up, but I can def sort one out for you.
