What are your top 10 or top 20 must have coded features

I'm trying to work up my list now... Given some of the spreadsheets there is almost too much info out there... What are the things you have coded that you would recommend to a fellow M5 owner.

My first priorities will be:

Remove all startup warnings, airbag warnings, and all other nanny messages
Dynamic adaptive headlights (fingers crossed)
Auto fold mirrors on lock
Actual tpms values
Single pull door openings
Trunk key fob close
HUD turn signals
Unlock doors at engine off
Turnoff radio and I drive at door open


What other ones should I consider?

I'm liking your list B1! I've been trying to make my own, and I have all the items you have listed on my list.

There's a trailer hitch view on the rearview camera that's pretty handy.

Turn off the safety on the auto up feature on the windows (the auto up won't stop if you open the door).

Thanks! My coder said it wasn't possible with the 2013s. I'll relay this to him.

+ A/C memory
+ Phone & Playlists in HUD
+ DVD in Motion
+ Unlock doors on engine Off
+ Windows close even when doors are opened
+ User Cell Phone ringtones
+ All windows open and close with key fob

I don't have a picture handy, but the trailer hitch view looks stright down on the bumper. It's handy if you regularly back into parking spaces - it will allow you to comfortably get a lot closer to objects than you could with the regular camera view. I will try to get a picture posted in the next day or two.
