I'm having a bit of a tool fetisch, not only garage tools, but also the e9 equipment.

So, I my quest for a perfect set I'm scavenging bits and pieces together.

Just noticed today that there actually some differences in the black foam piece in the tray:

In the pics you see (my newest addition - I am over the moon!), an almost complete tray, and look carefully at the position of the lightbulbs and torpedo fuses: there's 2 spaces for the larger type bulbs and just 5 fuses.

In the other toolbox, there is just space for one large bulb, and there's space for 6 torpedo fuses.

A difference in US vs European?

My January 1970 2800 has the first one below, my 73 3.0CS has the current BMW toolbox from Walloth in the second pic. I have updated the Tools FAQ.
