request: BMW instuctions for 2piece armrest

r111 · 07-19-2005, 01:59 AM

I'm doing an ED this October and will try to pick up a ROW 2 piece armrest which slides. Hopefully the unit will fit properly in place of the US one piece armrest.

Can someone with access provide the instructions for installing both armrests. Thanks.

I have also been wanting to do this. Any one have prices?

go to realoem.com

check in 51 vehicle trim| 51 30 Center Console Storing Partition

It looks like a little more than 200 bucks, but I don't think I can order through them. If anyone has the bmw instructions on installing one of these that would be helpful.

I'll call circle bmw to find out if they can order this item. Otherwise I'll pay whatever the dealer in Germany charges.

If anyone in Europe can answer, are the German dealers the best price for parts of all the EU dealers? I'm also going to the Netherlands. Will price +VAT be cheaper in the NL?

In Germay VAT is 16%, in Holland 19%

Yeah but if you go to europe you get the VAT back so why would a non EU resident have to pay the VAT?

P.S. does anyone have a picture of this armrest it sounds interesting...
