vent under passenger seat

smchuck · 03-04-2022, 11:39 AM

There is what appears to be some kind of vent (about 6 inch diameter circular piece of gridded plastic) underneath my 230xi passenger seat. Does anyone know what this is? I very stupidly spilled some gasoline on the passenger side carpet and some of it may have gotten near this plastic piece. I might need to remove it and clean inside. thanks

There's an air vent under the seats but it's more flat and narrow with no grid.

It sounds like it's your subwoofer enclosure.
