Adding Side Repeaters

[KDS]

I've just ordered a new set of front fenders/wings for the Touring. I decided to go with a set that has the pre-cut holes behind the wheel arch for side repeaters (we like them here in Canada--makes the car look more European). Question is, where to wire them from? Should there be an existing unused wiring harness hidden somewhere?

Thanks!

The wiring for the side repeaters goes straight across and through the inner wing just in front of and above the front loudspeakers, and terminates in small rectangular two pin plugs.
The sockets for these plugs are on fairly long branches from the loom that goes across the car behind the dashboard to the column stalks.
The sockets you are looking for have blue/red and brown wires on one side and blue/black and brown the other.

Brian, thanks very much for the helpful description. A couple of questions:

Will I find an unused knockout blank in the inner wing, above the speakers, or will I need to drill a hole? Also, can I assume that the sockets you've described are easily accessible by removing the under-dash panel?

Thanks again.

That's two questions I can't really answer, as I've never seen a Canadian spec BMW.
I would be surprised if the inner wings don't have the holes.
BMW tend to bind unused sockets lightly into the main loom with tape, but as I said, the branches with the sockets are quite long, so they could be taped fairly high up, if they are fitted at all.

Actually, the car was just recently shipped to Canada from it's orginal home in Germany (Tourings were never sold in North America)--so it's all Euro-spec. I suspect that all the necessary bits are there, waiting to be used. Once I get the fenders off and start poking around, I'm sure that all will be revealed. Thanks again for your help.
