Anybody know what this molded part in the trunk is for?

I think it's a secondary place to put the jack without having to climb in and strap it in behind the spare. I could be wrong, but it fits!

Yeah, my first thought also, the supplied jack seems smaller but I'll give it a go (maybe open the jack up a bit) when the freezing rain stops...

Storage for the BMW OE tow ball. Only fits the demountable Euro towball.

Interesting, any part #?

Realoem. Item 2. Lots of info if you search. Metric ball, not US certified. Some have used it here regardless. It should be the standard hitch for you in Europe.
