Hi,

I've got a center console trim piece, but it is for a RHD car. Anyone here know how/if possible to have this piece swapped for the LHD version which I can use in my car (probably through BMW)?

Part no. of piece I have: 51169145142
Part no. of piece I'd like: 51169145141

Thx in advance.

What is the piece?

Center trim piece w/o idrive. Pretty sure it's available on LCI E9X as brushed aluminum in the US.

For vehicles with
Interieurleisten Alu Feinschliff
S4B9A=Yes
01 Cover center console ALU/FEINSCHLIFF 1

If it'll fit your car what's the difference between the two parts that you're after? Do you have a RHD car here in the states? Care to share a bit of background on what's going on here? You may get a bit better help that way...

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I have a trim piece from an RHD car, and I need the same trim piece, but in LHD format. Both part no's are above.
