I purchased the Stellar BMWSTX from Bavauto for my '97 M3. It has a 2-stage impact alarm, door remotes, panic and alarm silence on the FOB, as well as chirp with flasher confirmation. I changed the microfilter while I was in there. The installation was easy. The box plugged right into the factory port. The horn wiring was behind the right headlight. The light and programming button were easy installs as well. Stellar recommended mounting the horn by sticking screws into the sheet metal. This would eventually become a corrosion problem. I used JB Weld to glue the horn base to the wheel well right beside the windshield washer reservoir instead. The horn is only 20W, but that is OK with me. The only problems were that the package of small parts (connectors) was missing, and the instructions are poorly written.
