found some general wiring diagrams, but they do not go into such details as you require.

At the Fader Control:
Rt Front (+) Blue/Red
Lt Front (+) Yellow/Red
Rt Rear (+) Blue/Black
Lt Rear (+) Yellow/Black
All (-) leads should be further down this wire harness, or follow each to their respective speakers to find the (-)'s.
No, it does not form part of my audio circuit, but I will have a look tomorrow and see if the wires are still there which may help you.

2. remove fader
3. unwrap wires to the fader, about 8 to 10 inches before the plug.
You will find 2 sets of 3 wires, all brown, or like brown/orange.
These are your speaker negatives.
Found this on another forum :
Now, use yellow/red for the left front positive and the wire it is twisted with is the ground for that speaker.
Yellow/black will be the left rear positive, the twisted wire is the ground for that speaker
Blue/red is right front, again with the twisted wire thing...bet you see the pattern now, dont'cha?
Seriously, if this takes you half an hour, I would be amazed.
You will also see how the 2 blue wires feed into the fader, and the chassis ground.
If you see a grey/red wire, that is the dash light circuit. Cap it off, you won't need it.
BTW, the stock 20 year old BMW wire is excellent, use it in good faith.
