Combox retrofit

Has anyone completed the combox retrofitting? I am looking to do this on my 2011 E70 and can't find much info on the installation. Tischer sells the combox and I have someone that can code it. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

How would you rate the cost and hassle factor of the process?

I'm probably going to do this on my '11 as well

Well, the cost is probably a little more than it should be for this retrofit...there was really no hassle at all with the process
