My Ride: 2005 545i, Silber-grau/grau. Vanilla flavored except for cold WX pkg.
Went to check the donut's air pressure today. I have always noticed that when I remove the cast-foam insert over the donut there are several nooks and crannys that are not filled on my E60. I have the jack, lug nut wrench and chock. I don't think I have anything missing according to the manual but just wondering what else goes in this insert and what model E60s have what?

I am aware that this is a repost, but I'll post it just in case the original poster does not know what a trunk monkey is:

My 08 535i has exactly the same as yours. Plus I have the small lugnut adapter for the lockable lugnut in its own hole.
My screwdriver, spare fuses, toweye, small double ended wrench and allen key (for sunroof) are all in the drop down shelf in the trunk lid. There are no pliers anywhere. I also do not have a first aid kit which is standard in some countries.
