First post here, and I just want to say thanks for maintaining such a great place to exchange info.
I'm fighting a #2 fuse blow when full illumination is dialed into the dimmer for the instrument illumination on a '72 3.0CS.
There's a reference in the archives to a replacement part no. 61311377281 from Bav Auto. Its only $35 or so, compared to $180 for the part listed in BMW's parts system, 61311355791. But it appears to have a different connector style. (See below)
Could someone who has installed it chime in on the installation--was it necessary to cut the factory block off to adapt?
TIA
