Default 545i Quaife LSD Question - Where to buy?

I have the ESS S/C installed on my car and I'm sick of the one tire frier.

Where does everyone recommend purchasing the Quaife parts? I just need the parts, my mechanic will be doing the install.

Thanks for any help in advance!

Cheers,

Chris

Thanks for the help guys! Already contacted Harold and ordered from HPAutowerks.

Definitely excited! Expensive week for the 5, but damn it, my car is just making too much power! New rear tires and an LSD to be installed soon!

285/30/19R. I'm on my second set of Hankook Ventus V12 Evos. They're affordable, quiet, and with above average wet and dry performances.
