Were you able to recover the wiring needs from the donor vehicle without splicing, (plug & play) or is it a case of spaghetti nightmares? yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

I have the chassis loom, engine bay loom, OSF loom and ARC looms from the Sport. All easy enough
The trouble comes with where the body loom meets the chassis loom at the back end, as its all different

More trawling wiring diagrams Laughing My D3 Build Thread
