    Im selling my car so i want to keep my bluetooth stereo and replace it with the original bmw cd player.

    I have old one out but the wires seem to be the wrong one to fit the original radio.

    Any ideas ?

    The wiring harness will disconnect further back along the loom, at the black plastic block in your 3rd picture.

    Yup, slide a flathead screwdriver in one side (the left side in that photo) & twist it. The plugs should separate then.

    Id say it's the wire for the mic off your bluetooth radio.

    I think you could be missing the original connectors for the original unit.
