Replacing Wii mote question

Hello once again team. I rarely post around these parts nowadays, not as much as I used to. But my fake knockoff Wii mote has finally gone over the deep end! I've had two knockoffs since I first got the rig, about 3 years ago, and one of them doesn't seem to work even if I change the batteries, however, the other is still going strong hopefully. So I am looking into replacing the broken one with a real one. Now I remember back in recent 4.0.2 days that there was this guide to connect the real Wii mote unto Windows 8 and remembered that I had to install the Toshiba BT stack because Windows 8 didn't allow some drivers to be added so it was forced. And boy was it a pain in the ass! Long story short and after a long trial I managed to have it recognized and had to use the BT program every time I would add the Wii mote. So my question is has this been targeted were you would just add an original Wii mote unto Dolphin without having to install an extra software and add BT stack unto Windows 8? Just press scan on Dolphin and the Wii mote would just be recognized? Or do I still have to use the guide to force it? My goal is to just fire up Dolphin and have it detect a real Wii mote hassle free. Please tell me I don't have to force the dreaded driver again.

Are you interested in a dolphin bar?

Never considered one before. Would this be straight forward connecting the Wii mote to Dolphin? And how would this work?

If its something that's less of a fuss I may consider it though because even with the knockoffs I would always add both of them as a device through control panel each time I would fire Dolphin up which was a time waster.
