Hi
I managed to get the last screw out from the fuse panel.
I had to make a special tool to do the job. It was crude, difficult to use and easy to make.
There is absolutely no room to use any sort of ratchet driver so I happened to have a 6BA spanner that is just the right size to fit a 1/4" hex bit holder.
The hex bit holder had to be shortened to fit. The metal strip is a slip fit around the bit holder.
If you make one of these, you need to follow the dimensions. It can't be too long or too short. The bent metal is very specifically shaped to fit around the obstacles and hold the torx bit in the right place.
Once the screws are out, then a wire needs to be plugged into the blue fuse holder in accordance with the BMW instructions. It is necessary to remove the fuses from the holder before it can be removed. There is a tab on the top that needs to be pressed to release the holder.
