It's not quite as easy as just unplugging them since the DME's have coolant lines running to them but it's easy enough for the average DIY'er
The entire BMW workshop manuals for all models are located at the link below. Type in the last 7 of your VIN, then search for DME removal.
Take pics of the DME connectors and cable routing before you remove them, it will help when installing them.
