AFAIK the E60 ECU is always located under the filter compartment on the passenger side inside the engine bay ... between the base of the windshield & the front right strut tower.

yeah, but it is SOOOOOO expensive !!!! Like pain in the ass expensive, and I don't have much money right now so I dont know if my parents will cough up 500 ish for me lolol...I am trying to do this whole thing without them knowing and the $100 JB2 seems easy to keep under the radar, cuz right now they want me to "focus on school"...ughhhhh the dilemma...plus I am losing time with my baby. Although it is a ways out time period, I have about 18 months left on my lease....
