I have an early (84) E30 into which I'm fitting a 94 M60. I have the M60 loom with the X20 connector, and a mating connector and the chassis loom has the early style square C101.
I either need to:
swap the chassis plug to the X20 so the engine can be plugged in directly (neatest and least possible fault points),
or find a pair of round C101 plugs and swap the chassis plug from round to square, then make the usual C101 to X20 adaptor loom (plugs are easy to find),
or find the mating square C101 plug and make a converter from that to X20 (leaves the chassis loom unmodified).
So with that in mind, does anyone know:
Are the actual metal pins common between some or all of the plugs, or will I need to repin all the wires?
Can you still buy the square engine side C101 plug and if so whats the PN? Looking here: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=12_1512
The housing may be 12521273189?
Thanks
