Wire Harness Cover Question.

[bimerok]

I can't seem to find the post I got this image from, but for those who used the M3 wire harness cover: is it possible to fit all these components with the engine installed? I guess I'm more worried about the item 23 that looks hard to fit in.

Yes, you can fit all the componants with the engine installed.

It's an easy fit. The toughest part for me was cramming all of those wires from the s50 cover in there!

And you'll need to trim part #22 to look like this to clear the brake booster.

Oh I didn't think of Brake Booster... Thanks!

i didnt need to trim fot the brake booster, only the intake manifold. Take off the stock harness junction box and even it out smoothly and get it as thin as possible. then use electrical tape to get the wires all together. well worth it and makes everything look factory

Yeah, I already took the factory junction box off and tapted the wires together, but never ordered the harness covers untill now. So it just hit me if I will be able to install it with everything in its place and it sounds like i will.

Thanks for the help.

Dooh! You're right!

Trim for the intake manifold.

Sorry about that.

Just got my covers. Any of you guys know what #24 is and where/what is it used for?

[Mike B.]

IIRC, #24 is a piece that slides into #23 and is used to mount relays.
