as others have mentioned this is a very easy do-it-yourself install...the only other additional item I needed was a single zip-tie...in that I found it too difficult to re-use the factory zip-tie on the e-brake leather boot.
Don't hesitate to do this install on your own

Nice shot of the NAV. It is pretty cool to see all of Europe and then zoom into where you are.
I only wish they made a titanium e-brake.

I have the invoice somewhere hidden in my office. 
But according to the accessories brochure the shift lever was 116,- Euro.
Have to check my books...
