    starting the swap. 91 318is m50 with some questions

    i have a 1991 318is bought a 1990 325is took the drivetrain out of for the swap. and just bought a 1992 325i Auto today for the m50 i just started to unplug some stuff and am wondering how much of this do i need?

    do i just unplug these two plugs or do i need to go further? will both of the plugs be used?



    and whats this little cylinder thing do i need it?

    You can take the body side of the x20 connector and the engine side of your 325is's c101 connector, along with a few inches of wiring on each, and make a harness adapter, So you don't need to butcher your m50 or 318is wiring.

    From what I understand (I could be completely wrong), one of those connectors is for the auto trans.

    No clue what the cylinder thing is.
