Wow, that's a lot of wires.  I'd go for the electrical troubleshooting manual.  It's the whole harness basically.  The only wires that don't go through the driver's firewall are the main battery positive and DME power cables.  The only harnesses that don't head under the dash are the rear lights, fuel pump & sender and power windows & locks.

Are you stripping it all out or trying to fix a problem?

You should be able to find the Electrical Troubleshooting Manual somewhere out on the Internet (http://rapidshare.com/#!download|516l34|161366059|fdsBMW_E30_318i_318is_318ic_1991_Electronic_Troubleshooting_Manual.zip|3230)
