You might be able to buy one of the new trays, but as it removes the power socket I am not sure if it would directly fit into your car.

Aha, so my dealer did know what they were talking about when they said the power socket would be removed too! Good for them!

So in UK the car comes as a non-smoker as OEM.

My new one will come as a smoker's one. It don't cost anything, but was a discussing when I ordered the car.

The ashtrays (in the back seat doors) are OK for children's gums etc. items that I don't want to see in the seats...
I never specified anything regarding smokers / non smokers package on mine. It therefore came as standard with the smokers package (UK LCI).

Do you have a part number for the delete smokers package on an LCI? I assume there are different ones for different trims? I'd hate to loose the power socket but I already have the power socket adapter for the flash light so I could still have one if needed.

I don't have that compartment on my 06 550i.
That's strange - what's there instead then? Do you have more dash padding for the US models then as I know you seem to have quite strict safety laws.

There is such a part. I purchased it for my 04 545 (since retired). I'm sorry that I don't know the part number, but I do know that I got it thru this forum sometime in 04, so you may find it with a search.

FWIW, I found it to be nearly worthless. It was rubberized, but didn't have much room.
