Brake Pad Wear Sensor: M Performance Brakes?

Hi,

I was under my car for the first time today (doing an intermediate oil change) since I had the M Performance Brake Kit installed on my 335i a few months ago. I noticed that that the brake pad wear sensor cable for the front (left) rotor was not connected to anything; it was just dangling there. I looked around the caliper assembly and noticed no obvious place to plug it in.

Does anyone know if the big brake kit eliminates the electronic pad wear sensor up front (I only had the front jacked up and could not check the rear)? I zip tied it out of the way for now (the dealer should have done this) assuming there is no wear sensor in this kit, but I would like to find out if this is correct or just a bad install.

Thanks for your help.

Bad install!!
The sensor should click right in the middle of one of the pads.
