Since the E36 has a seperate self contained engine loom like the E30, I should imagine it's just a question of removing the plug on the E36 loom and replacing it with the C101 plug from the E30 engine loom, just the same as for an M50 conversion.
If you post the wire colours and pin numbers of the C101 equivalent on the M42 loom, I'll match them to the E30 plug for you.
