I was wondering if anyone had any photos or diagrams of how the interior loom is run. I took some photos but cannot find them now.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

have a look at X works writeup on the forums, He has pictures regarding where things go on the M3 but I am sure it would be the same on other models.

They might not all be relevant! I took them as I was pulling the dash out. The boot one might not be the same at all because it's from a touring

No bother at all. If you need anything else just post, I might be able to help as I still have the shell here.

Could you tell me where the following black plug is meant to go? Its located in the drivers footwell and next to the central locking module:

Also did you find that there a lot of single terminal plugs and spade connectors that don't connect to anything? A few examples:

dont worry about ones not connedcted if everything works, there are a few like that, for things you may not have, ie obc ,oem alarm, probably cruise control etc etc, as long as everything works youl be fine
