How to remove 1st Aid box under seat?

[treeman]

I'm struggling to find out how to remove the First Aid box from under the passenger seat in my X5. Searched on here and google but can't find anything helpful. I've broke the front lid off it so got to get it out but looking into it there are no visible screw heads or any sign of attachment.

Can someone help?

perhaps undo the bracket? looks like it may be 3 screws? and since this part is used on the BMW models listed below...you may be able to broaden your search by looking on their forums (or by using their model number in your search):

• 3 e46
• X3 e83
• X5 e53
• Z4 e85
• Z4 e86

Ah - sussed it from looking at photo's of ones for sale on eBay. You need to push up on the top of the box from the inside where there is a catch that once pushed up then you call just pull the whole thing out forward - Easy when you know how!

the front lid can be detached too, if there is a need... the box attaches to a bracket that is secured with three screws to the underside of the seat, the box needs to unlatch, and then slides off... http://www.xoutpost.com/880956-post30.html
