BMW Flashlight Battery Replacement DIY

[@99ron30]

I left my torch on because I wasnt sure if it was a torch or just an extra glovebox light, so I assumed it turned off when I closed the glove box. Looks like I will have to do this one day... I am surprised no chinese company has thought to make replacement copy or an upgraded version with LED, big battery and auto off feature.

What battery did you use and do you have a link? This is an awesome video I just wish you would’ve given directions on what to do. Still is going to help me, I plan on doing the same thing except with an LED bulb

Thank you Brandon! I buyed the battery online but I had a bad experience with the shop, that’s because no link at all...Probably you already know LED bulbs are polarity-sensitive and connections would be the opposite as showed in the video. Good luck!

The ultimate DIY machine theres a bulb from the UK that I just ordered 2 of. Should be here mid July, was interested in swapping/upgraded the battery and I’ve found a bunch of different DIY’s but yours seems the most original
