Ya I have the one in the glove box, but I dont think I have one under the seat will check those.

Also did you guys know that we have 5 cigarette light outputs. 1 in the center dash, 1 under the glove box towards the back, 2 in middle by the rear seats and there is even 1 in the trunk.

I also have these, but there are 2 in the trunk...

Come in handy when you have to put in a mobile charger

Hey, This might be a stupied question, but did anyone ever notice that attatched to the bottom right (driver) side metal frame of your seat is a flashlight? Whats it doing their?

I noticed it a year ago but forgot to ask. Theirs another one on the passanger bottom side too.

I think you are looking at the automatic seat belt tensioner. It tightens the seat belt in case of a crash.

I bet this topic had a lot of us scrambling to our E60's to check whether we had these "flashlights" or not!

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, those aren't flashlights...
