Notes:

NOTE: This vehicle is equiped with the EWS II immobilizer system that need to be bypassed when adding a remote start. Use DEI module 555B.  *1 The alarm plug is a black 12 pin plug located just behind the glove box. It is mounted with the pins facing you atop a vent just to the left of the body computer. Other wires at the alarm plug are: 12V- RED / white; Accessory- PURPLE / white; Siren- BLACK/ blue; Ground- BROWN / orange. Do not use the power sources at the alarm plug to operate high-current devices. The other side of the siren wire is mounted in a 2 pin plug at the passenger rear corner of the engine compartment. The other wire in the plug is a brown ground wire. DEI recommends attaching the siren at this point.  *2 The wire is located in a white connector behind the instrument cluster. Do not unplug the white connector with the ignition on or turn the ignition on with the plug disconnected.     *3 These wires are the separate left and right parking light wires. Use both wires and isolate each.  *4 Door triggers are BROWN / gray for the drivers front door, BROWN / blue for the passenger front door, and BROWN / white for the rear doors (if equipped). Use all three wires and diode isolate each.   *5 The body electronics control module and the relay module are located behind the glove box. When using a 530T and locking and unlocking with the key will cause the windows to travel full direction. The 529T will not alter the factory operation.    *6 Located in a single pin connector next to the factory alarm plug.      *7 If equipped with a factory alarm, the alarm will be plugged into the factory alarm plug. The only way to arm and disarm the factory alarm is with the factory remote. If your planning on using the 8360 pre-wired alarm harness the factory alarm must absent or removed.

Hello, I am working on the above car and it has the BMW EWS system. Can I just use a standard key in the box type of bypass module or do I HAVE to use the DEI module made for the BMWs? If I have to use the DEI module, where can I purchase one?

I don't "believe" you can use the "key in the box" type on that car. It either takes the dei module or a factory sensor ring and another key to make it work.
