hi y'all,
i have a bmw 1 series 2004 e87 120d and I did find the fuse box inside the glove box but the space is so tiny as I bearly can put my hand through that little hole.it's exactly like in the video below. i've searched all over the internet for any clues of how to get a better access to it but didn't find anything. does anyone have any idea if is another way to get it down or something i don't know?

Have you dropped/lowered the glove box compartment by pressing the tabs?


That's the most access you can get without removing many more panels
That's only on Lci cars. Pre Lci has a tiny little hole in the back of the glove box with a pull out panel which is only about 160mm x 100mm. Well actually it's exactly that size as I've just been out to measure mine :redface:

It surely is the worst accessibility to a fuse box that I have ever seen. Also as soon as you put your hand inside you completely block out any available light and also any view that you may have had in the first place. Not great at all :rollseyes:
