    M20b25 motor and harness with early model car harness

    So I am putting a m20b25 in my 69 2002. I have the motor out of my 89 325is that I am fully rebuilding and turboing, but I pulled a entire car harness out of a 85 325e. Im trying to figure out what the difference is between the two harnesses. I have the motor harness from the 89 for the motor just want to see if the early model car harness will work with the late motor harness? Ive heard it will if I connect the wire in the glove box area to something. Any input is appreciated. Yes I realize finding a late model car harness is easier but I havent come across one yet

          This has everything you need. The wires in the glovebox comment is because you have to do this:

          Your c104 plug has 3 wires
          Pin #1 Black Wire-Engine speed
          Pin #2 green wire-OBC Fuel cut function
          Pin #3 Yellow/White wire-Fuel rate
          On the 89 harness you'll need to splice or connect the following wires to the ones on the c104.
          Pin # 3 from c104 to Pin 8 on the c101 of your 89(Yellow/White or White/Black wire)
          Pin #2 from the c104, run a wire from directly to the + terminal on the coil(Green wire)
          Pin #1 from the c104 to pin 9 on the c101(black wire)

          I made an adapter to go from square (85' harness) to round (89' harness) with two female ends one square and one round, then spliced them together by following the picture on the first page of the thread i linked above. Just take your time, its nothing harder than finding corresponding wires and connecting them.
