I need the green connector for my 1989 535i. PO cut the old sword connector off the wiring harness and it looks like it got fried. Where can I find another connector?

The dealer sells you one. But he has to install it also, as the system is needing a extractor.

I ordered a replacement socket with pins. The whole assemble was about $20 USD. Even comes with with a little wire on each pin. So all I will have to do is solder and heat shink some tubing. There is a local hobby shop that has various sized tubes that I can make one of these extractors. Thanks for the info. Question why is your name Shogun and it appears you are German or at least this is the text on the link????

I live in Japan, and yes, the text is German in the link. Once upon the time I lived there.
