Well, for the iDrive controller see if you can get one from a junkyard or look on ebay. I would check the junkyard first.

Once you do that; contact Yuri to get the controller board.
(all details are on the first page)

As for why not 3D print the mount; well I need to design and model it in a 3D software and I don't have much time between work and family.
Then I would need to print it, and I don't have a 3D printer.
I would need to buy it (more spending) and if I use a 3D printing service then it's going to cost me to print multiple versions until I get one that I'm happy with.

In the end I would have spent way too much on this part.
I was hoping I can get someone local interested in the project and I would pay them the cost of the filament.

Then we can take some orders and sell it as a kit. But seems no interest in all this.

I'm just waiting for some vacation time next month so I can try and finish the frame.I have revised the design so much, now it's a very small mount on the front and doesn't span all the way to the back.
