Ok here go two thingies:

I have this plastic thing by my headrest and I would like to know what it is for!?!? Itīs not to pass the seatbelt nor is it a clothing hanger, cuz it pops out quite easily.... Itīs probably something stupid and I will look silly when people tell what it is, but this time, I just canīt figure it out......


On the second hand: Everybody knows my wheels by now. I love the silver roundels on them but someone keeps telling me that the wheels will look even better if I had BMW roundels on them... What do you guys think???

Vertini centre caps look alot classier and work with the colour of ur wheels better, keep them as they are! Dont know what that thing behind ur seat is though!

I have no idea what that clip is for. It kinda looks like a seatbelt holder for two-door cars. It makes it easier for people to get in and out the rear seats with the belt out of the way. But since there are no two door E60s, I don't see why one would need it.

I LOVE your rims the way they look now. Very classy. Normally I would vote for BMW centercaps but the Vertinis look clean without them.

So apparantly nobody seems to know........ I see you guys were thinking the same as me about the center caps, so they are staying just the way they are, they look awesome to me!
BTW I am on a bussiness trip to Belgium so I left the car at the garage to have my final two mods done: Schnitzer exhaust and Hamann front spoiler! I canīt wait to get back and see the result because the hamann spoiler will be custom modded! Yey!

Hi

This is a holder for the seatbelt , for use by "small" people , or people with back probelms , makes it easyer for them to reach the seatbelt :-)

GREAT wheels by the way "thumbs up"
