    If you have the late system, memory on the seat typically works fine without the column or mirrors in place. Sometimes it gets messed up and has to be reset. Fairly simple.

    The late system's body harness is the exact same as any non-memory car. The memory harness has about 7 connectors for the memory control module and seat, and unless those are plugged in, nothing -- not even seat movement -- will work.
    So which is it? Uh, have you actually done this yourself or are you taking information from another source?
    Not sure on the production date of the car but the module I have is a 61 31 1 388 561 meaning it is an early production. (61 35 8 356 510 is the later module)

    Haha...I'm one of the few enough to do the full conversion, with bits in other cars.

    You know what they say about kicking a gift horse in the mouth. Lucky for you I'm not easily offended.

    61 35 1 388 561 and 61 31 1 378 662 are the early modules. So perhaps the harness has to be spliced (don't know), and the memory may or may not work (also don't know). My knowledge only pertains to the late system, as mentioned.

    I have 3 E32 750 parts cars at the shop, the remnants of another four 750s in crates, and I bought another one today -- an 11/92 with some great and rare options! One of these days I'll get into the early system.
