        There is pretty much nothing original on my car besides the unibody, doors, trunk, and driveshaft.

          Its common for the wire to get dislodged from the clips and drag on the drive shaft. When you put it in reverse it blows your fuse and your gauges stop working. The escalade hardness i used had solid copper wires so they were very ridged and hold their shape. Now their is no way the wire will ever hang. By the time i'm done with the car the only thing original left will be the shell and the Windshield wiper assembly. I hear thats a bitch to replace on an e30. I'm still battling with the one on my GTI lol.
