R50/53 Factory alarm instructions needed

I understand that MINI will be revising the alarm and moving the alarm's LED over to the head lamp stalk instead. However, if you've purchased an alarm kit for one of the earlier built 05 cars, then it will have the wrong replacement stalk in it. Knowing how MINI operates in the USA, it might take them a while to make the proper alarm/stalk available here.
I hope this info doesn't put a kink in your plans, but I'm sure that you'd like know (I'm in the same dilemma BTW)...

This presents a problem for you if your new car has this feature as the current OEM MINI alarms replace the wiper stalk with a new one that has a red flashing light/LED on the end of the stalk.
