solo valido para coches viejunos !
buenas, una cosilla de las que no tienen mucha enjundia, pero,...lo que no esta bien no lo esta !
estaba yo sin luz de guantera, pero,... pasen y vean
bueno, esta vez lo pego aqui sin mas que estoy un poco vaguete, lo he posteado en el foro americano del e9, y estoy pensando en no traducirlo, porque las fotos son autoexplicativas, hombre si a alguno le parece mal, que lo diga,...

some time ago i asked about your actual position of the glove-box-light switch
the fact was that my car came without that function. the light was in the right place, but the switch was in the trunk together with some other spare parts
"bmw art car" showed me the factory solution: (thanks again)
but when i went to my car to reproduce it, i found that some part of the "wall" ,in which i pretend to fix the support for the switch, was missing: (i assume that it has something to do with an unusual A/C installation)
in other words, i can not reproduce the factory assembly,...:-O
so i was thinking a lot about how to install the switch in a secure and reliable way, and... the answer was:
the central lock of the glove box is there, and it has a metallic part that contains it and those walls can hold the switch support, and it is a reliable point to know that the glove box is really closed!
starting: disassemble of the lock: two hex bolts:
see the position of the holes marked:
and the holes prepared and ready for assembly:
fixed:
now after cleaning and new grease applied to the lock barrel:
see switch tab aligned with lock bumpers:
now only assembly pending,
and test, pressed: no light :
and now release switch: e voila !:
it works perfect when i close the glove-box cover !
i´m happy as a kid !
