    In the trunk of my car on the drivers side there is a wiring harness that does not plug into anything. I figured I could splice into a remote power wire there. I'm just curious what it is for. It is not for the cd changer. Anyone know what it's for?

      Optional security system? My e36 had a plug for that in the trunk.

        If I remember right there was more than just one plug. But you could be right. I'll get a picture of said harness tomorrow.

          This is the harness I'm talking about.

            That has to be the cd changer. Alarms are usually behind the glovebox (where my compacts is) and the e46 disc changer is on the drivers side and looks to use multiple plugs

              I would agree ^^^ that definitely looks like some kind of audio bundle.

                I have the disc changer in my car though. That's why I'm not too sure.

                  To follow up on that wiring harness in the trunk. I googled the part number on the big plug. It comes up as the plug for Bluetooth.

                    Interesting, I didn't know that was an option back then.

                      BMW was one of the firsts to have Bluetooth integration and the first for iPod support.

                        Slowly starting to put my air ride in. Started on putting a wood floor in the trunk. I wanted to get the trunk put together last night so I could stain the wood but it started to rain.

                          What color are you staining it?  I love me some Minwax "Early American".

                            I think I'll be getting semi solid cordovan brown that Cabot makes. Reason for that is it looks like it'll match the wood interior trim I have.

                              I got the floor all together today. It's hinged in two places. On top in the back and on the bottom in the front. Now all that needs to be done is to stain the wood!

                                I like it, the air ride equipment will be underneath in the spare tire well I assume?

                                  It'll all be under the frame that the air tank is on top of. So I'll still be able to have a spare tire!

                                    Got the air installed over the weekend. Had a slight wiring problem, but it's all good now.

                                          It rides a lot better than the coilovers I had. But they did have 50,000 miles on them. Haha.
