Re: brake booster installation
Jeff, I sent you the pages out of the "Big Blue Book" on the brake vacuum booster R&R but will post here as well, just in case anyone else is in need of this info

Dang, those pieces are nice
Yasin, you might want to consider including the supplier(s) of some of your items such as these, as others may want to know where they can score them as well
I don't have an M car, but I do know a few, hundred

Re: odometer stopped
Most likely the gears are shot, but you have a couple of options for replacements

https://www.garagistic.com/
And do a search on this site for past experiences, plenty of E24 owners had to replace their odometer gears
