? 61316976397 ? Wiring harness
3. Run the 2 wires from SZL as follows:
- Install 1 wire into pin 12 on SZL connector (x1880) and run to ground (this was the final step missing in the SI![Cool](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/cool.gif)
- Install 1 wire into pin 13 on SZL connector (x1880) and run to connector x6031 in ebox to pin 11 red/white wire

The mentioned wiring harness with part no 61316976397 you must order from bmw and that connects the 2 steering wheel paddle switches to the steering wheel column.

ok I understand the fact about SIB. The 2 wires must be done .
If I insert the hardware an point3 correctly,can i use the functions to switch by steering wheel immediately or first after update software and code new Vehicle Order ?

If you're going to do the full retrofit anyway, I'd just make sure it all gets done at once (hardware + programming)

@ehchan
maybe the shift wheel (95% sure) - but not the Gearlever ...
@ NavarroOne
61319165671 ? ECU and (...connector x6031 in) ebox

the ebox is in the engine compartment so it is not the ECU. I don't recall whether WPG550 or I posted these before (they're from WPG550) so uploading them here just in case.
The SIB referred to earlier, which has a slight omission in it, namely that you need to install a single wire into pin 12 on SZL connector (x1880) and run to ground, is also attached as 2 pictures for quick reference

@ehchan - try realoem and putting in either your VIN or the correct build dates/model, etc and see if the parts still show as compatible. From memory, I don't recall seeing any restrictions related to xDrive in any of the parts, although I was probably searching under my 550 as a model.
Another option would be to hunt down a 2008 or 2009 5-series brochure and see if the SAT was an option for the xDrive models.
