+1 The reclaimed space doesn't seem like a good enough reason to delete such a useful item - flashlight & power socket in the glove box.

Realistically how many BMW owners feel comfortable wiring a socket from their fuse box? I would never attempt that mod. I would buy a cheap BMW accessory and plug it into the glove box for the extra power source. Its a change most people wont miss but I don't understand why BMW chose to remove this item.
