No, I host the pics on my own web site then just use the IMG tags to link back to them which is how I get multiple images. Nothing fancy

You know, now that you gave me the answer, I knew that!

Just a bit of brain fade from a long weekend of no brain activity!

Thanks for the pics! Hopefully by the time mine comes BMWAG will actually have someone sit in the backseat and see how ugly that plastic looks.

Mark,
What took you so long? As always, very informative post from the man also known as Lomag.

Anyone knows P/N for poplar trim please share.

I had trouble figuring out how to remove the cig ligher sockets. All the wires come out, then the heater buttons just pop out from the front as do the cig lighters. As I said though, the cig lighters were a little tougher for me remove eventhough they used the same popout scheme. They also have a bulb on the side which must be removed first before the lighter itself can be removed. I thought the bulb would slide out but not so, you have to pop off that piece then it just snaps back on.

Ordered my Poplar Console trim today p/n 51167153769 ($63.69). Seems all part are a little cheaper here in Germany. Ordered the hand brake and two plugs for where the heated switches go. Will not get here until next Wed. Will keep everyone informed if this is the right stuff. <_<

The only reason I bought the rear reflectors in the lower bumper is because I read it here. Now I want the poplar piece described in this string. The storage option seems nice, anyone have pictures?
