That sucks. I spent 20 minutes looking for it the other day.

It's still in the glove box right?

Yep. It's on the left side. Check to see if the plug-in spot is still there. Is your X5 used? If so, it could have easily been lost and never replaced.

the 3.0i didn't come with a flashlight, only the V8's.

Hey bro, were you at Circuit City in Newington by any chance on Saturday? Someone parked near me in a Lemans X5 that looked exactly like yours.

That's a shame. I actually use that all the time.

Thanks for your help.

I am not sure what year the 3.0i started to come with a flashlight in the glovebox, but my 2006 has it there, and it has been a handy feature.

Sweet, I found the "missing" 12V plug... it is way up there below the glove box. I also didn't know that the center console slid forward.

Keep it coming guys.
