Been there. Grew up north of Copenhagen.
I spent the latter part of the evening on wiring the Motronic. I basically use the 164S harness, but many changes to the harness are necessary to accommodate the Milano. Components are located in different places compared to the 164. The 164 firewall grommet fits nicely in the Milano firewall, and that became the initial fixing point fot the harness. The ECU plug then sits inside the cabin. I put the 164 coil where the Milano coil usually sits, and I put the Motronic relays where the Milano double L-jet relay usually sits. This means significant shortening of all wires to and from the two Motronic relays. In terms of length of wires, the two Motronic relays could have fitted ncely next to the coil, BUT, that would mean EXCESSIVE wiring. So, I'm in the process of shortening the wires to the 2 Motronic relays. The coil is all wired into the Milano native wiring, and so is the power for the 2 Motronic relays as well as the fuel pump power from the 2 Motronic relays. As obvious from the pics the disorder is increasing as the "skin" on the tails is taken off in order to shorten wires, relocate components, remove obsolete wires, etc. - one step back and hopefully 2 steps forward at some point
