So, tomorrow I travel up the M1 to meet the person with the 'complete' replacement door for our L322..I am hoping the job isn't going to be TOO stressful but am not holding my breath. Apart from the fact that the door itself weighs a fair bit, the major issue i envisage is the electrical hook up. The door apparently has the correct loom, but I will only really find out once we plug it all up....anyone else done a L322 front door 'transplant'? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers for now!

There's a very good chance it's the same as the X5 beemer given it's based on the same but expanded architecture.

I had a gander too and was met with the same zilch you got so I donned my surmising hat.
It is amazing how much of the early L322 and BMW x5 and 7 series are similar, the Beemer parts are usually half the price as well!I had a gander too and was met with the same zilch you got so I donned my surmising hat.

I've heard it said often re. prices, and I believe the hellectrics were pretty much lifted directly from the 7 series, certainly pre-05 models.
Anyway, you may need a trolley jack to aid refitting if it weighs a ton, suitably padded of course and an assistant would be a bonus anol.

Did you just opt for bread knife trimmed expanding foam and a quick wrap then?
