Just doing my normal battery drain check, lol. and noticed a couple of electrical plugs doing nowt, plus a couple of fixing holes close by.
Is this just part of the standard wiring harness for something that the car wasn't specced for, or am I missing something, literally.

Mount for the aux heater (standard on diesels only)?

BMW fitted a standard loom with all connectors included on the E53, unlike future models!

Looks like the correct position and hole distance to me - but no guarantee

Spot on, I have those plugs and used the permenant live feed for my electric fan connection. On doing a scan I now get an aux heater fault code. I can live with the fault code as I know what’s causing it
