Re: More euro-spec features (archive)

Most of this is already offered on the M5 (yahooooo). But how about the comfort seat (or whatever it's called) that has the pulsating air bag in it? Suppose to be good for long trips.

It has been a very positive experience adding euro-spec rear fog lights to my 540 (in case you missed it see link). Now I am ready to embark on adding other BMW options that are not offered in the US. These are the options I have earmarked:

-drivers side storage compartment in lower dash
-electronic damping control (EDC)
-air suspension (rear axle level control)
-servotronic power steering (speed sensitive)
-auto dimming side view mirrors
-latent heat reservoir (heater works immediately, even when the engine is cold).
-in dash CD
-dual glazed windows (reduces moisture buildup and road noise)
-double vanos
-headlight washing system
-comfort close (can close windows remotely using button on key)
-rain sensitive wipers (not offered in US in '98)
-xenon HID lights (not offered in US in '98)
-electric rear sunshade (option I now want)
-heated seats / wheel (option I now want)

The goal is to use exclusively BMW factory parts in concert with factory workmanship. Should I have success in adding such options, I will document each procedure carefully just like the rear fog lights. What I need is a parts catalog, shop manual, or any other documentation to determine parts / wiring / procedures. If you can point me to any sources of such documentation (books, CDs, online, etc), I would be greatful.
