They look quite pricey too, a quick search suggests around 70 Euros/85 US Dollars. Not sure what a UK dealer would charge...

The small blanking plate can be removed easily although it will also want to fall inside the door card. The wire should be visible once plate is removed but I would plan on having to remove door card although it is not a difficult job. Yes, BMW parts prices are crazy and not sure if this item would be easily available through usual used part route (basically eBay).
