Has anyone installed a keyless entry system on their 735 or 745i. And if so, which one did you use?

Bob,
Just did the JC Whitless remote last Friday. Piece "o" cake!

Use Figure 3N for BMW (instructions). I tapped at the power lock brain next to the steering wheel.

The remote Green goes to the yellow/black, the remote white goes to brown, the remote yellow goes to green/black. I wired the remote black to chasis ground and the remote red to constant +.

As Stein says the customer assistance is not there. Best $40 I've spent on the beast. Only quirk is my remote has three buttons, lock/unlock, alarm and start. Mine locks on the lock/unlock and unlocks on alarm. For $40 I can live with it.

Regards,
Bruce

Especially on the wiring. You did all the work.

What Jens is LOLing about is that he determined some of the wiring. Apparently I didn't acknowledge his contribution fast enough.
