        Yep, same as above, 2000 'face lift' and the fag lighter illuminates as does the transparent plastic ring surrounding it

        (although mine is disappointingly not as orange as Dave's and I now have illuminated ring envy.....)

          Thanks folks.

          I think I have the orange ring (sounds a bit personal!) which should seemingly light up as above.

          So where is the bulb?!

            they list 3 different part numbers on realoem? maybe the non smoker cars dont have the cig lighter lit?, can you access the back of it from the side if you remove the leather boomerang?

                  does anyone know the part number for the lighter surround on a S50 (the clear plastic part)?

                      no worries - realoem/dealer parts system shows the part but no part number so have ordered two from other models and hopefully one will be the same.

                            bought a new lighter assembly and swapped to a blank not a lighter

                            socket part number 61.34.6.973.036

                            blank (stopper) 51.16.8.222.183

                            the clear plastic surround wasn't available from the UK so had to order one from Germany and I will add the part number when I recieve it

                              I need to have another look at mine but it appears the lighter surround does have its own bulb which fits into the tube in the picture (similar to ashtray light) can anyone confirm this?
                              the panel fits both models s50/54

                                thats interesting dave i didnt think of that tube being a bulb holder!!! will now pull the gator etc and have a look for bulb holder..after replacing the lower panel i must admit my patience was wearing a bit thin,looking at what you have done i know you know what i mean!! well done and thanks.
