CJK said:I'm trying to talk myself into doing this job on my '07 Z4 3.0, which is going to involve installing the loom. I fancy my chances apart from the bit where I have to establish what pin goes where in the DME. Anyway, what I'd love to know is why BMW decided to stop pre-wiring post '04 cars. The optimist in me says that they were just trying to save a few pounds by not putting in pointless wiring, but I do wonder if it was a cynical decision in order to make retrofits harder...
I've done the retrofit on a 2007 Coupe at the same time as a few other people, and it was pretty easy once we'd figured out which pin on the DME. There is a thread on it here:
