Per what wdimagineer posted it is not easy to install the stalk. Also I find that you get most of the benefit with just coding the feature without the stalk. It can be switched on and off through iDrive. The only time the stalk is useful is if you start the car in daylight and then drive into the night. In this scenario auto headlamps will switch on without auto high beams. To correct you have to switch headlights on and off. If you start the car at night this is not an issue.
