i wrote off my 91 318is before the weekend and i'm now in the process of plasma cutting it to bits to get my roll cage out.

if i were to re shell it into a pre-facelift 320i would i need the ENTIRE loom i.e. wiring for lights, window switches, central locking or would the engine and ECU loom plug into the 320i fusebox?

If the 320 hasnt got elec windows or central locking it would be easer to swap the looms.
But the 318is engine loom can be wired into the 320 loom.
