just about finished my conversion....
need to get a windscreen washer bottle.. what have ppl used as im using the std E34 airbox
id like to use a 324TD bottle but i cant put my batt in the boot as the car is a early 320i and dosnt have the space for the batt :(

Cruise control cable... E34 one?

also i am just using the STD aircon fan as the cooling fan (with all the aircon stuff in it) and it runs cool enough ! thats even in peak hour with 41 degrees! and thats on the first stage of the fan
my wireings broke so i havnt had the time to get the high speed on it working.

I used the E34 one from the driver's side. I moved it over as far as I could, then drilled a hole and used a self tapping screw to secure.

I use the intense washer bottle (cut away from the main bottle) and mounted it where the m20 afm would sit.

trying to get the Tacho and economy meter working.... what do the wires in the 3 pin plug under the ECU do?
the black/blue, brown/yellow,and green?.......
and being a Auto motor there are a lot of wires that are not used on the M30 side next to the ECU plug
