I actually called Quafe from Asia, as some other guys here are interested too. Quafe said the diff will have to be swapped. They also say it does not affect the warrante in anyway (I kinda doubt it), and any shop who has had experience working with BMW should be able to do it. But you're right, the cost is tremendous. I could be wrong but remember it costs something like 3000 USD when it's said and done with no shipping included. We don't have local support on this side of the globe, so if it malfunctions in anyway we are really screwed. We have to then take it off, send it back, and it is unfortunate.
Just my 2 cents.
