If that's an option for you, come back to me and send a PN.




Side note:
Only the US cars seem to have the "emergency trunk lid lever" mounted, none of the European cars.

And just another side note:
not every Z4 has a "ski hole" to get into the compartment.
Interesting, hadn't seen that suggestion before. I'll have to remember that next time I do this since I've been replacing a few airbags and generally like to disconnect the power just in case.
