'85 318i questions

["J.K. Chapman" <tsar72@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,

I am beginning to start work on my 318i and have run into a couple of 
things that are puzzling.

I attempted to do a service reset using the jumper of pin 1 and pin 7 
but that didn't work. Do I need to try a reset tool or are the batteries 
in the dash likely shot?

The car came with a digital clock. A friend gave me one of the onboard 
computer modules. He said it just plugged in. I can't find a connector 
for it in the dash wiring near where it mounts. Should there be a 
connector or am I stuck with the digital clock?

The PO ripped out the BMW radio and replaced it with an aftermarket 
radio. He removed that nad gave me 2 BMW radios "that should work"
I am trying to figure out the wiring and if I can get the speaker 
connector from somewhere. Anyone have the color code for the wiring of 
the radio? I checked my Bentley manual but no soap.

I also need to find one or 2 wheels for it. The PO must have hit 
something pretty hard, he bent 2 wheels. I put the spare wheel on and 
the least bent of the other 2.

Thanks for any help on these things. I am trying not to part this out 
and save it for the road. It seems to run very nice and I like it.

Regards,
