I've seen some that were taped into the wiring harness and fastened to the dash crossmember.  Not easy to find.


That was on earlier cars - it's possible that BMW didn't install that wiring on later cars.  When I get home I'll try to take a picture for you.

hey desktop dave thank for  your directions, it was just like you specified wrapped up in the harness and not easy to find but i was not going to give up,  the easiest way to find it is to look at the schematics and trace the color of the wire (grey and grey with blue strip) coming out of the relay..thanks again bro ...
