Connect branch E, blue/red cable, to the blue/red cable from slot 25 of the 54-pin plug X10117 (5) using a double
mini connector from the parts kit (7).
Ensure that the casing and plug strip can be assembled and connected to the light module (6) after the mini
connector (7) has been connected.
Disconnect the following cables from the plug strips of plug X10117 (5), fit the contact parts to them supplied in
the parts kit and connect them to the 10-pin casing (G).

order described to avoid confusion.
First disconnect the following four cables:
Slot 2, blue/red cable;
Slot 3, blue/brown cable;
Slot 4, yellow/red cable;
Slot 5, yellow/brown cable.
Remove the contact parts from these cables, strip the cables and fit the contact parts supplied in the parts kit to
them.

Branches I1 to I3 go further back along the vehicle wiring harness towards the rear.
E
In cars with a vehicle wiring harness above level 2 (see section 1), branch J (yellow/white cable) on the xenon
wiring harness goes parallel to branches I1 to I3 into the boot.
Lay branches I1 to I3 (grey/white, grey/brown and grey/green cables) along the right-hand sill wiring harness to
the rear, along the vehicle wiring harness behind the right-hand boot trim and then along the vehicle wiring
harness to the floor of the boot.
Remove the 20 mm sealing stopper from the floor of the boot (the hole in Figure E is already sealed with the
grommet (H)), deburr the hole and treat it with the normal BMW anti-corrosion coatings.
Place grommet H on cables I1 to I3, grey/white, grey/brown and grey/green cables, and thread cables I1 to I3
through the holes to the underside of the car.
The rear axle is beneath the hole.
