WTB Early Model Clear GloveBox Bag

Post by Kurtamine_ »

It is my understanding that the early model cars came with a clear pocket that would let you put your owner handbook in and insurance card/registration. It would be splendid if someone can sell me one. Please let me know.

Thanks in advance!

If you can find one that the clear plastic hasn't turned yellow and brittle it will be something of a miracle. Good luck.

Are you referring to the white plastic folder that the handbook etc. fitted into. That has clear plastic pockets.

I have my owner's manual clear bag from 1985. The bag is clear on all sides and the manuals slide in from the middle after opening the bag. There is one additional pouch on the back that I use for the registration/insurance card. I slide these documents in from the top. This may be a tough one to find unless it was used for other BMW models. :-k

I wasnt referring to the ones in the photos. However, what you are showing me, looks like something I would be interested in.

This was what I was originally looking for. As previously said, it seems like finding one that isnt ruined is going to be tough.
