[QUOTE="aidilj, post: 588355, member: 20536"] Some work done today is more preparation for the swap. The automatic shifter panel was removed [IMG]http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/manual%20conversion/IMG_4208.jpg[/IMG] While inspecting the connection, noticed a cable that run from the shifter to steering column. This is supposed to only allow shifting when the key is turned. Also, key wont be able to be removed without this cable. Will need to figure out how to handle this. Cable from shifter [IMG]http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/manual%20conversion/IMG_4210.jpg[/IMG] Cable end at column [IMG]http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/manual%20conversion/IMG_4212.jpg[/IMG] Inserted to a port near the key [IMG]http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/manual%20conversion/IMG_4213.jpg[/IMG] Reading a bit more on clutch operation, since mine is EWS 3.3 there won't be a connection from clutch module to EWS but only to DME. Quoting source ([url]http://www.unofficialbmw.com/images/BMW_EWS.pdf[/url]) The EWS 3.3 connector [IMG]http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/manual%20conversion/IMG_4218.jpg[/IMG] Washed the boot and did a mockup [IMG]http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/manual%20conversion/DSC03864.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
