cubby-hole door between seats

 Lancs.
I notice yesterday that the door on cubby-hole between the seats is getting stiff to open and close. Further inspection showed that one of the hinges on the bottom is cracked and therefore the whole door is out of alignment. It still opens and closes but its only a matter of time before it breaks.
Has anyone replaced their cubby-hole door? Can you order a new door and hinge mechanism from BMW?
 
Ive had mine off- there a how to on here colin but its straight forward really. Door is available form BM but a breaker would be a cheaper option.
 
A tiny screw on each hinge when it is open and then you need to give it a proper pull forwards and it will 'pop' off. :thumbsup:
 
Drop these guys a message they have a few of the doors so I'm guessing they also have the hinges that came off them

They obviously sell the doors separately so the hinges on their own should be cheap as chips
 
Thanks fellas.

I unscrewed both hinges last night but was unsure how to then remove the door. So it just pulls off - cheers :thumbsup:

Thanks James, I will have another look tonight to see how the hinges connect to the door - I'm still a bit puzzled :scratchhead: but I've asked the seller if he has the hinges and tiny screws for that item
