Purpose and function of the component

The presented trunk light with frame and socket has been designed specifically for selected versions of the BMW 1 Series E81, E87, and E87N generations. It is responsible for stable mounting of the light source in the side or rear part of the luggage compartment, enabling safe use of the trunk after dark and in poorly lit areas. The design of the element is matched to the factory mounting holes, which facilitates the replacement of a damaged or missing housing.

Construction and fitment for BMW

The element combines a mounting frame, a socket, and a space for the trunk light, creating a coherent installation module. Thanks to this:

• it ensures proper routing of wires and the electrical connector,
• it keeps the light in the correct position relative to the upholstery,
• it minimizes the risk of looseness, falling out, or misalignment of the housing.

The original BMW origin helps maintain the factory look of the trunk interior and compatibility with the vehicle's existing electrical installation, without the need for modifications or fitting universal replacements.

Condition, installation, and service application

The product is offered as a used part, which allows for economical repair while maintaining OEM quality. This type of element works great for:

• replacing a damaged trunk light frame or socket,
• replenishing missing components after previous bodywork repairs,
• restoring full functionality of the luggage compartment lighting.

Installation consists of seating the frame in the factory hole and connecting the socket to the existing harness, which in most cases can be performed as part of standard service work without additional modifications.
