The wire that runs from the boot to the engine bay is a good 12mm(ish) thick (measured with my eye-vernier). Wouldn't go any thinner than that and it's probably a part you can buy from BMW.
Don't know if the front battery cars have the little distribution block under the bonnet which all +ve power seems to be routed through. If not, one of those might be handy too
'ave fun!

im sorry to say this mr "ouch" but there are some total dick heads on here sometimes! we all share the same love for these stunning cars so y not keep the smart arse comment to yourself and just help people with some positive comments instead of negative! the zone can do without these arse holes!
by the way i am only 19 so insurance would be too much for me to have a 325i! i only bought a 318i for this reason and since i have bought it i have realised that these engines have to potential to go as fast as a 325i as i have done! car will be out within the next week so if you want proof then we will meet up and i will be able to show you that the m40's are as good as a 325!
anyway! moan over
A1BMW325ISPORT: How much do you want for this kit?
many thanks
Liam
