Do You Have 2 of These?

I had a quick look under the floor in the battery area and the little box with the lid on the left but didn't find it. This weekend I will try and remove some of the trim and see if it's there.

Find a Z4 in a dealer and take it for a test drive.

When "checking" the boot, you might find this part *accidentally* finds it way into your hand.

try 07544752115 and 01952727298... Always a good source, both of them

Everytime I call all the specialist BMW breakers none seem to have any E89s in. But I guess I should try again!.

Yep already tried that just getting one result from Germany brand new 33€!!

When I looked at it I thought to myself around a tenner tops but when I checked online it's showing around 27€, that is just daylight robbery! I am pretty sure BMW never used to be this expensive for these kind of parts. Years ago when I was trading cars it was always the Japanese manufacturer who priced trim exorbitantly and BMW Mercs were pretty reasonable. Seems like they have gotten greedy!
