Any write-ups or how-to's. I see others have asked. Has no one done this? I bought a so called complete setup off ebay but just looking at things has me questioning a few items like the throttle cable hook up. Anybody seen something on this on other boards or sites? Thanks.

I think I recall some writeups around the net, they aren't new, so it might take some searching.
I know there is a mounting bracket for the throttle cable assy that mounts somewhere in the engine bay that could be missing?

I've fitted it to my 318iS

I used an E36 throttle cable if I remember correctly as it was a little better fit in regards length

Other than that it's all plug and play if you have
The clutch switch and bracket
ECU
Stalk
Control unit

This is the info I followed to do mine. As far as I can remember its all plug n play. Except you'll need the E36 M42 cruise cable, PN: 65-71-8-357-087. The actuator mount bracket wouldn't fit on my airbox mounts (not sure why its different but it is), so I've read the E36 M42 mount works but can't confirm it.
