      The S54 is much simpler plug and play retrofit.

          I think that it is also simple.

            The two wire connector between pedals, was it free without jump connector or such? I do have that kind connector with the similar coloured cables but its connected allready. I allready bought all except the module.

              Thanks for putting up a guide. Is there a similar guide for S54 owners?

                in my case it was free.
                clutch switch look the same as the stop light switch:

                    Wania, thanks for the posting that up.

                    Fitted mine this morning in a couple of hours.

                    It really is plug & play.

                    Thanks mate

                            cheers Wania but i may be missing the point.
                            if you look at my pic the stalk wires only have 2..... 1 x yellow and 1 x blue...no other wires

                            its just been pointed out that there maybe 2 variants....a later version that uses a comms bus?

                              I think that your cruise control switch comes from E34.
