Ideally I'd like one that integrates with my BMW key buttons, but if not, I can live with having one of those old-fashioned alarm fobs. I'm in the UK (north-east area) for two weeks in early December and would rather get one fitted there than here in Germany. It's hard finding anywhere good googling and looking in yellow pages online.

Why not just have BMW put in the factory alarm? That's what I did with my M3. It may cost more but the OEM alarm will integrate with the red warning light in the mirror and your key fob. It shouldn't be a big deal...

If you are going aftermarket make sure that the new alarm is CAN Bus integrated.
