Does anyone make one for the 535 or has anyone successfully swapped one from a m5 into our regular 5 help would be much appreciated.

Just did a TON of research on this. Mine is a 550i 6M. The M5 diff will not bolt on and neither will the 3.38 stock diff form an auto. Your options really are to go with a custom LSD (if you want to swap gear ratios). I ended up going with a Quaife 3.46 LSD. Just ordered from Koala motorsports for $3700. Should be SWEEEEETTTTT!

Holy crap that's expensive. I can understand why the e30 folks throw a pair of jeans in the diff to lock it up.

I would prefer a DIY method:
