    The wire harness on the bottom is attached with two nuts (IIRC). Look around the bottom of the plastic sheath and you should see them.

    See the "BMW" on the valve cover? Look straight down from the center of the "M"... see that little nut there? That one does it, I think... there should be another too.

    I think I see the other nut just to the left of the hose clamp screw for the intake hose there.
