just wondering Do these cars come with a emergency kit in the tool cover thing in the trunk? what about the safety triangle?
You own the trunk now right? check it out!

US Spec cars only come with a small-tool-kit (screwdriver, front-end-tow-hook).

BMW sells two different safety triangles. Reports are the US DOT-spec triangle is too big to fit the built-in trunk compartment. There might be somewhere you can buy the euro-spec triangle that should fit the trunk-lid compartment. Personally, I prefer a flare kit.

BMW sells a first-aid kit that fits the trunk-lid compartment.

BMW sells a mobility kit with tire-sealant and an air-compressor. They list it as not for use with run-flat tires, but the continential ContiComfortKit is basically the same thing and is listed as being usable on RFTs. Of course the Continental kit is cheaper.

You can also buy some of this stuff on Amazon, if you prefer that..

* bmw trunk first aid kit
* bmw mobility kit
* bmw safety triangle, bmw lighted triangle, AAA flat folding safety triangle, or orion flare kit
