Where are my little hooks in the boot!?
My old car had them, and they were a tiny but incredibly useful little thing - perfect for hanging your shopping bag on to stop the contents falling out.
Don't tell me I needed some stupidly expensive option like extended storage just to get two 50p plastic hooks Don't suppose there is an easy way to retrofit them, or something similar? |

If you didn't specify the extended storage pack then you don't get them.
Get 2 of the following from the parts department: Description: Hook Code: 51 47 7 258 562 Price: about £2 each The side panels are the same regardless of whether you have extended storage or not, so the holes should already be there or at least marked out so they just need drilling. |

At least I'm not the only one to think these hooks are a god send for the reasons mentioned above. Presumably if you have the floor net thing the hooks are part of that package.

Fondly referred to in my neck of the woods as Curry Hooks.
I didn't opt for Extended Storage, oops.

£30k+ car, what's £155? Arguably BMW UK should have it as standard spec but we all know they'd just bump the price up of it was so it is nice to have the choice.

For the sake of £2 which is apparantly what they cost from the parts dept, they should just include them - its those little touches that people appreciate. |

Oh shoot! Just bought two of these hooks (51477258562) as referenced earlier in the thread, not realising the OP has an F30, not an F32.
Will these still fit my F32? I'm struggling to find a picture of where they locate. Any info appreciated! |

Thanks for that. F32 boot is significantly different though I think. Interesting that your hooks are a different design to the ones I purchased. Anyone confirm what the F32 hooks look like and where they fit? Realoem hasn't helped!

My two F30's had them and they are very handy!
On the 5 series you only get one on the left hand side of the boot, right hand side is bare. I called my sales guy and said one was missing, he checked and said they only get one. Get this, he then gave me one for free. Get the fuck out of here I thought, something for free Spend $130K on a new car and get a $2 hook for free! |
