My Ride: 2005 545i ordered - built 1/05 - arrived 3/16/05 . Silver Gray - Biege Interior. Sports Package, Steptronics, Comfort Seats, Cold Weather Package, Rear Fold Down Seats, Sat Radio.
Mods: Seatback Hangar, Trunk Net, Umbrella.
I have been experimenting with storage options contained within the subtrunk where the mini tire is stored. If I am running run flats - what purpose is the tire?
Can not the foam inserts be removed - I noticed that PDC electronics are housed in the bottom foam shell.
I have already repackagged the jack and cleared enough space for oil and maps. Is there any reason not remove all of this?Andthe foam insert are not efficiently desinged in terms of space use.

Don't know if it will help but here's a picture of what comes with your car if BMW doesn't ship the spare (I think Canada and possibly other countries.) Maybe this carpeted insert and dividers can be ordered?
