The "thing" in the vent is a gauge from P3CARS .
It plugs into the OBD port and can read a number of interesting data sources such as Boost: Will show vacuum and boost Coolant Temperature (exact in F/C) Air Intake Temperature (exact in F/C) Exhaust Gas Temperature Ignition Timing RPM/Shift (exact RPMs) Actual Road Speed 0-60 time Battery Voltage It is sold either pre-configured or you can install it yourself Installation itself is very easy on the F10 platform. Just install the vent and plug the cable into the OBD port . Shouldn't take longer than 15 minutes http://www.p3cars.com/catalog/f10/ Only thing to note is that on our cars you likely want to move parts from your original vent to the new one (if you opt to have it pre-installed) as the new vent will not have the chrome slat and the illuminated dial wheel

Just so I and others can claim we have something Euro on our M5s It's one of the simplest mods out there. Just buy the switch and plug it in , functional immediately. You can either use the standard F10 switch which has buttons for the fronts (of course not on ours) and the rear fogs. Or you can get the Euro F10 M5 switch which only has the button for the rear fog lights.

Like so many other things, hugging the left lane, changing lanes without indicating, (front/rear) fog lights on all the time, people cutting turns at traffic lights ... and the list goes on.

I have it, and here in Miami when I am in torrential tropical rain with 15 feet visibility, I am glad I have this to reduce the risk of people driving into the back of me.

Both Sam and I feel the car will look better with the wheels more flush with the body but without rubbing. We measured Fri and ordered.
I don't like the fender hanging over the wheel look, although subtle. I have an all day meeting Tue otherwise would like to come over and see your car. Maybe see how mine look. Sam is very fair and probably won't be a big deal to place later. You could potentially get a Mon for Tue order if desired. They ship out of so cal. Not me on 101, in Taipei for. 1 night back tomorrow ( today for me :-) )

FYI, 10mm in rear and 12mm in front is perfect for my tast. Subtle but significant.
