I just install it on my car and just works great... For all those people out there who doesn't have Homelink built-in your car, you could install this product and use your brights (by flashing twice) will open your garage door. It's very cool!!!

cool, now all i need is a garage...

Pretty cool!

Yeah, I need a garage :P

my method is as effective but certainly not as stealthy (although more so than homelink or a remote). i will post a pic tomorrow.

There used to be an article about integrating the telephone push button into a remote. Never did it--just keep mine clipped to the sun visor. The wires are accessible in the trunk & it seemed pretty slick.

My girlfriend wired a momentary pushbutton in place of a euro fog light button on her E36, and took the guts out of a garage door opener remote, and wired it in... works great, looks stock!

If you order, support a fellow E39 owner and order from European Auto Source. Tom is a GREAT person to deal with.

yea thats what i did, but the button location is different.

power is run parallel to the dome light with a resistor, so you need the light on for it to work. an antenna was soldered to the circuit board and run forward flat against the roof for better range. the circuit board is hot glue gunned to the top of the panel.

k, so, where does that push button wiring end up, as that function could be pretty useful.

also, anyone know if the cruise control functions travel through the rear wiring before going to the engine bay?

Not quite sure. It's in the trunk & part of whichever harness would hook up to the factory phone. Wish I could find the article. It's probably pretty easy to ring out if you find the phone connector.
