Go to Exide website and verify group 49 battery size will fit your vehicle. Once installed, you do not need to pay anyone to register your battery. Cheapest non-dealer quotes I could find was $100-$150 in OC California.
Use your smart phone. I have verified this on a LG G4 Android 5.1. Purchase the Carly App for BMW, ~$60. Purchase a OBD2 bluetooth adapter, (mine is an older model by BAFX), ~$25. This worked fine to register a battery. Optional, the Carly OBD2 adapter enables additional advanced features on the app, such as coding complex ECU and viewing parameters dashboard. Might want to get the adapter by Carly instead.
Connect the app to the vehicle. The feature to register the battery cost an additional $10. Go through the steps. Unless you're reinstalling the exact same battery specs, select register new battery. For this battery, select "90ah agm". Press register and you're done. Have fun with the app, if you don't know, check the reviews. It's pretty nice. Perfect for Bimmer DIYers.

***UPDATE ONE YEAR LATER: 1/19/15*** -- After a full year of use, the Exide Edge FP-AGML5/49 Flat Plate AGM battery has held up very well. It cranks great and has performed well through one of the coldest winters on record in my area, and a very hot summer season. I stand by my original review with 5-stars! Excellent Battery at a bargain price, period!!! Buy it if this fits your vehicle, and you will not regret it.
***UPDATE TWO YEARS LATER: 1/29/16*** Two years running with the Exide Edge FP-AGML5/49 Flat Plate AGM battery, and I can definitely report that battery is going strong. Great investment! 2001 BMW M5 performs great with this battery. I stand by my 5-star rating, and strongly recommend this battery...no "battery registration" required!!!
***UPDATE THREE YEARS LATER: 6/9/2017*** Three years running with the Exide Edge FP-AGML5/49 Flat Plate AGM battery, and I am still loving it. 2001 BMW M5 is performing extremely well after my move to the DFW area. My 5-star rating stands, and I positively recommend this battery...no "battery registration" required for 2001 M5!!! Saving Money, Starting and Driving even Faster in Texas!
***UPDATE FOUR AND ONE-HALF YEARS LATER: 10/10/2018*** Four and one-half years running with the Exide Edge FP-AGML5/49 Flat Plate AGM battery. My 5-star rating stands, and I positively recommend this battery...no battery registration; required for the 2001 M5!!! Saving Money, Starting and Driving even Faster in Georgia!
***UPDATE FIVE YEARS LATER: 02/09/2019***
My Exide Edge FP-AGML5/49 Flat Plate AGM battery may have finally died today! I had to rely on a support battery for starting my M5 today. It is not clear whether I can recharge it at this time after 5 years. I will test it later and update this review. It showed no sign at all since I was able to recharge it to 100 percent a month ago.

Battery arrived extremely well protected package. not air bubble or peanuts but firm honey cone cardboard (pic attached).
Someone maybe wonder why dealer charge $200 or more labor for just 10 minutes work who buy this for BMW (Mini, Bentley and maybe MBZ too).
Because BMW (and other European manufactures) car's equipped with IBS (Inteligent Battery Sensor) on battery terminal (pic attached)
It monitor condition of Battery even it's ignition off and sleeping.
and it send data to DCM and CAS (on board module), control amount of battery charging and vehicle electrical system consumption.
So, vehicle needs to know if battery is new or 5 years old, how much capacity, AGM or conventional flood type.
You have to re-register to CAS module even If replaced by same type same capacity battery.
It can't be done by regular OBD error code reader (no matter if it's $30 equipment or $1000 equipment, regular OBD reader can't communicate with BMW control module)
Resetting Clock, lost Bluetooth communication and/or lost address book are because battery was disconnected for few minutes, nothing related to re-register process.
It could be happen to any vehicle made by any auto-manufactures.
You can avoid that by connecting Jumper battery to Jump terminal on engine compartment (battery is in trunk but there is jump terminal in engine compartment)
Connecting trickle charger or smart charger to jumper terminal don't work.
Because trickle charger/smart charger are monitoring battery voltage. (Send power, then monitor battery voltage, send power trickle)
when there is no voltage back from connection, trickle charger stop send power (stop charging)
So, once you disconnect battery, trickle charger stop sending power.
Be careful red wires are still hot and car is still wake when you change battery by connecting second battery (jumper battery).
When you change BMW battery, ask dealer or local shop to battery register (update data on module).
Otherwise, your BMW act as if it has 5 years old battery.
My other car's Diehard battery died in less than 3 years.
My BMW's Original Exide lasted more than 5 years.

The box was pretty beat up when it arrived but the battery itself was in fine condition. One advantage of the AGM battery is that it takes no apparent damage when the shipping company leaves the box on your doorstep with the large "this side up!" arrows pointing to the left... where do they get those guys?

UPDATE: as of July 2018 a year and 4 months later the battery doesn't hold the charge anymore. Complete garbage. You're better off with Interstate or Deka. No returns don't waste your money here.
