Two problems:

1. are the heaters from a R55,R56,R57? if not they most likely would not work as the OEM. You would need extra wiring and switches. And the switches could not go in place of the ones in OEM as they are computer switches not real on/off switches.

2. For OEM the wiring harness is probably not the correct one if the car came with out and that would then be very expensive to change and would go back to the end of problem #1 about aftermarket heaters.
