Default Autodim and homelink rearview mirror

Is the install pretty straight forward or is there something complicated about it. I really want one but would rather not pay the stealership to install it in my MS3 GT if I dont have to.
Sorry if this is the wrong sub-forum. Was not sure were to ask.

Built in garage door opener, you can also program it to turn on your house lights or activate your home alarm system.

The installation is okay, but getting the a-pillar and rain sensor (if you have one) cover off is a bit tricky.

Also, one of the wires outlined in the instructions didn't exist on my speed3. I had to use the thick red wire instead.

An easy way to get it off is to pinch the bottom and wiggle. Worked like a charm for me when I did my 9500i hardwire install.
