Re: How to wire low beams to stay on with high beams
Not a clue about the electrics but the headlights sound funky - have you got a link to them?

Re: Oil Pressure Warning Light
Check the oil pressure sensor at the back of the cylinder head first - if there is any oil even slightly weeping from it then replace it.
If that is clear then perhaps check the banjo bolts on the cylinder head oil spray bar.

Re: 635csi automatik transmission problems
There is a pawl, or tooth, inside the gearbox that locks the car stationary when the gearbox is put into Park. The pawl can break - it's a gearbox out and apart job to fix it if I recall correctly.

Re: Stereo upgrade.
You could screw it into the carpet section of the centre console or even the carpet over the transmission tunnel. I have both a cup holder and an iPod/phone mount attached that way - they are completely sturdy and once removed only the carpet is flattened - which springs back up soon enough.
