This might be a repeat from someone's earlier question, but is the flashlight still included with the current E60's?
It is in my 545i.

In mine, I use the flashlight charging outlet for an auxiliary power adapter, which adds a power outlet in the glovebox. (And the flashlight is not LED, it's incandescent.)

I used one of those for an additional outlet in my 540, but hte 545 has more than enough 12V outlets.

Donv,

You disappoint me,Im sure you could get at least a 1.5 gain in horsepower,if you were to loose the flashlight. (mind candy)

Have you been watching our beloved horns?

I got mine as an complimentary present from the dealer about two months after I picked up the car.

It's worth about 28 ? but it's nice to have, espesially up here in North where the sun comes up the next time sometime in March
