another 530d interior
235100
rear seat storage bin console:

and this 'doppel DIN' plate from eBay.de

Only thing I've seen before is the rear storage bin, that has an AC vent that blows into it. Cold sandwich and drinks on a hot day!

Turns out the boosters are available in the US, that is if you have about $1300 lying around...

oh, slightly off topic - Note that if you upload images to bforums and include them in your post, they will now be shown as a thumbnail (as of March 30th) - if you have the image as a link, it will be still be a full size image in your post.

That 530d Touring interior reminds me of bowling shoes.

I'm pretty sure that switch is the headlight dipping adjuster. I guess it allows you to adjust the vertical on the headlights.

Interesting stuff, some of which I have never seen like those booster seats.

Your signature is too big Mnsport- max total size is 600W x 240H

+1 ECE regulations state that the lights must be manually adjustable

Not here in Sweden. So you canīt say that it is mandatory for cars here in europe.

That is the meanest interior!

I have booster seats in my wagon & no children to put them in... Maybe I should rent one or two crib midgets for a day :naughty
