Information:
The new BMW Remote Keyless Entry Security System Kit is now available for M roadster and M coupe vehicles. The new part number is 82 11 1 470 403.

Important parts information not included in the instructions:

Due to accessory controls located in front of the center console, it is necessary to install the alarm system microphone/LED indicator assembly at the right side of rear center console switch panel, located behind the hand brake (between seats). That location is currently occupied by the rear storage box (P/N 51 16 8 399 088), which should be removed from the vehicle and replaced by the rear switch plate (P/N 51 16 8 407 211). The plate requires two smaller blanking plates (P/N 5116 8 400 712) and one center plate (P/N 51 16 2 492 136). To secure the switch plate in the console, use the existing mounting frame (P/N 51 16 8 399 321) which was installed with the original storage box.

For installation instruction refer to Repair Instruction 51 16 200.
