My mate has just asked me what this plug is in the boot of his 318is. its passenger side next to the shock turret.

I think its the abs loom as the car has no abs unit under the bonnet (im assuming it would be in the same place as my 325i's?).

Has it had a car phone fitted at one point?

Doesn't look like a BMW fitting. Only think in the boot like an abs ecu is switchable auto brain. I think it's from the car phone.
