I found some unattached connectors on the right side but it wasn't compatible with Harman Kardon Amplifier.

If someone removed/swapped his amp please help!
Checking your VIN, it says you have option S676a which means your car came factory fitted with amplifier hifi system (so BMW middle option which sits between basic and the HK system). Unless somebody removed it and coded your HU for basic hifi, you should have an amplifier behind panels in the trunk of your car. [please note specs vary by market but I am not aware of option s676a coming with just speaker upgrade and no amp but someone may know different].

If somebody removed the amp then you should still have the cabling and hopefully bracket, ejw2011 has kindly provided link to parts and location diagram. Unless you have had the car from new it is of course possible someone upgraded and then removed the upgrade and/or the amp was relocated (or just ditched), Good luck, hope you find it.
Here is side panel removal instruction (step 1)
