I agree with the above comments. Takes a few hours, straightforward job.

Read through the BMW instructions that come with the OE tow bar (EU version) to decide for yourself:

Some later model years have required recoding by the dealer so that the trailer lighting module is recognized by the vehicle. You list an 03 model in your profile, and my 2003 model didn't require recoding, so you should be fine.
