Retrofit Comfort Access?

Has anyone retrofitted the comfort access system to their Mini? I have an 08' mcs and it's the one option that I wish it had. Seems like a couple of new door handles, a new keyfob, maybe an antenna ring & module and dealer reprogram but that's all just a guess.

And a all new MAIN WIRING Harness. and then taking the whole interior out of you car.

Other items needed.

5-6 antennas
new start stop button
new key fob (that alone will cost you $285)
new main wiring harness
new door handles
new door wiring harness X2
and about 50-60 hours of labor
CA module
and a few other items.

So although it is possible to be done it is not an efficient use of money. it would be cheaper to turn you car in and get one with CA
