My Ride: 525ise, Dec 2003, Silver Grey, Black Dakota Leather, Bluetooth, 18'' Runflats, Folding mirrors, Automatic/man box,parking sensers front/rear,latest addition 645ci black saphire, with everthing on, nothing it does not have.
i am trying to remove the cover on the upright where the door closesagainst the windscreen. There is an air bag beneath the cover so i am worried. The reason is because of a rattle behind the cover, the dealer told me they can not find anything wrong so i thought i would look myself. If anyone has pics showing this would be great.
thanks
thanks

Thanks stream -- I was "Acrobat-less" on my primary machine and unable to jump in with the details.
525iiii, be sure and heed the following airbag safety warning:
Before performing any work in the area of an airbag system, make sure that the ignition is off and the key is removed!

) that it would pry out with a screw driver. Since the instructions don't call for disconnecting the battery, I would assume the airbags are not powered when the ignition is off. And you may have other issues if you disconnect the battery.

FYI--I used Word since I don't have Acrobat on my PC. I set the default printer to MS Office Document Image Writer, print, open Word, insert picture from file. Then compress pic to web/screen--it took a 2.5 MB file and reduced it to 240 KB.

I agree on the merits of pdf--just don't want to spend the $300! There's a free word reader now:
