Complete vehicle harness, except engine. Rodent damage on a new 760i. Bags are full of the wiring/connectors that get pulled through firewall/trunk/rear openings to prevent damage.

The longest I left them turned on without starting the car was five days, and it didn't have any trouble. Interesting enough, I bought a car the same model but two years newer than the one I had rodent problems with, and the mice left it alone. I think some wiring insulation is made of something that tastes good to mice.
I’ve heard that before too.
