Title: does your harness in the engine bay look like this?
Post by: duboy on December 15, 2009, 11:07:56 PM: just wondering what your harness that is coming off of the firewall onto the pass side of the engine bay where the battery could possibly be in other non-is applications. does this look right?

Mine looked like that until I put a COP kit in. :D

Now it's the perfect place to bungee a gallon of distilled water & an extra quart of oil. Never hurts to be prepared for the slings & arrows of outrageous fortune.

i reread my post, not only is the picture WAY too big...but the engrish in it is awesome. I mean who needs punctuation...or a coherent sentence structure for that matter, to communicate?

thanks for the replies everyone, i was just wondering if they all had that harness bundle that crosses over the battery tray. my questions have been answered. now back to reading that manual on how to post crap on the internets

Post by: ak96ss on December 29, 2009, 07:06:56 AM: 51 71 1 380 392, cost about $30 5 years ago. And I had to trim it a bit to fit properly, since the M3 doesn't have the harness that runs right across there on the bottom, but YMMV. It's not perfect, but it sure does look better!
