Default Question? Why doesn't Audi tool box come with a Flash light?

BMW has one built in the glove box, I just thought its pretty dumb for Audi not to have a built-in flash light when the Audi has all those tool in the tool box. (what if you break down in the middle of night without lights?)

Default I can assure you, the BMW flash light wasn't the right tool

for the job at night.

If you're worried about problems in the dark, get a mag lite.

Default BMW's doesnt hold charge

Tried to work on a co-workers 328 and the flash light burned for about 7.5 seconds. The idea of a rechargeable flashlight in the glove box is excellent (why would I want one in the tool box), but the execution is pretty poor.
