My brother and I installed this in 2002 BMW X5 3.0 5spd in about 60 mins - start to finish.
(The seller's site did not show this will fit my model but I cross referenced it on other sites and it does)
You need to be patient as it is buried in behind cables and tucked away.
But overall removing and reinstalling the glove box and panels were more difficult than the replacing the part itself.
Great price and fast delivery. I'd say, I probably saved $400 over the BMW delaer by replacing this myself.
Thank you.
