Expert Reply:
Any of the wiring harnesses that you mentioned will work with your 2010 BMW 5-series. They are designed to work with pulse width modulation and multiplex wiring which are two different types of systems. Out of the available options I recommend # C59496 because it is a newer design and still offers the circuit protection that the others offer and installs the same way. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.
