You won't be disappointed. Here's a thread on how I have mine hard wired (plus there are some others opinions and some good ideas).

Thanks, I didn't notice that, and I didn't feel like taking the cover off to look!

BMW Genuine Factory OEM 82110406881 Advanced Battery Charging System

I am really trying to avoid killing the battery and even worse having the car go into limp mode.
That's the one I have.

Really nice installation RCNet did with the comfort read-out/plug-in, and the flush mount on the rear part of the trunk. I noticed, the cord is barely long enough to reach from the battery terminals, over the foam tire repair kit holder, and then out the top of the box-like batt compartment cover. your install is perfect way around it.
