It works. Many people have done it. What year is your car?Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image. -

With the right parts everything bolts up and works. No custom modifications needed.Comment

It's not too complicated. I did mine over two days, total time of around 12 hours.
I swapped out transmissions a week later and did it in 4.5 hours.
Just search around and you'll find all the answers you need. The little tricky things are bypassing the park/neutral interlock (there is a diagram just search) and enabling the cruise control again if you so desire. Just know that if you want to use cruise control again, you'll need to install a pedal cluster that has the clutch switch on it. Mine came out of an e34 528e.sigpic
