Basically everything under and inside the dash and steering, instrument cluster are almost cabon now.  Lucky thing is that only the center dash and driver side burnt.  Engine bay is fine.  I now managed to find a donor car to replace all the items under the dash - dashboard, blower unit, blower motor, a/c plastic vents and pipings.  But now my problem is the wiring harness.   The problem is that the donor is a 1991 520i - entry model with no check control, LKM system.  My 525i got all that.  So I cannot directly re-use the wiring harness from the donor car - unless I go through the very painful exercise to study the wiring diagrams of the 520i and 525i side by side and see how to modify it.  So I am thinking of the easier route - get hold of a complete harness from the scrappies.  Problem is I am working in Singapore and they definitely have almost no E34 parts here as most are sent over to Johor.  Even then most of them are 520i without the check control system.  Most of the E34 here in Singapore are German CBU.  Does Malaysia have a lot Japan spec/version of the E34 either 525i?  My understanding is that the Japan spec 520i also have the check control computer - at least from realOEM it seem to say that.  If got Japan spec E34 525i, then maybe got a chance of finding the harness.In short I basically need the wiring harness for a 1990 525i with check control system.Do you guys think it will be easy to source the harness? if yes, how should I approach that? Many many thanks.</p></blockquote><p></p>
