Recently bought a 325i, 2 door manuel ,grey se, lsd.
Anyway, it's a renovation project.
Sum f@k tried to steal it, destroyed the ignition system , but failed to rob it.
I bought a second hand ignition column.
This fits/works fine, but I have a spare blue wire!!!???

Any idea what it's for?

Blue plug with bmw on it?

Can't get any pics to load?

Blue plug with bmw on it, goes into 2 brown wires on the old ignition loom.
Think it might run up to the clocks.
