they wont work, they are not plug and play. if you want to spend a day or two under the dash chasing wires go ahead but its not going to be anywhere as easy as buying an aftermarket setup

On a side note, the HUD in E60s, including the M5, requires a special windshield. It's hard to see in the daytime, also.
