Im sure there is way and im sure BMW dealership has that info but I dont think they will let you see that. Your best bet is to see on the unit. Its not that hard to take it out. There are very easy articles you can follow in how to take it out. Doesnt take to much time. Its in the hood so ya. Its not like the E30 where its a couple of screws.
