E86 B pillar trim

[sd_dracula]

Anyone know how to replace this piece of trim?
It goes under the speaker cover and door sill.



Also cannot seem to find it on bmwfans.info
Anyone know under which section it is?

By replace do you mean remove? You just pull it, it is clipped on. It's easier if you remove the door sill first, which is also clipped on.

 

[sd_dracula]

Yes but it seems that the huge plastic trim surrounding the speaker/sub behind the seat is also on top of it. Does that need to come out also?

 

[edd_jedi]

No it easily slides out from underneath it, I've removed it several times without removing the rear panels.

 

[sd_dracula]

Nice one. So it's on those clips similar to the door panels that just pull out.
The door sill is being replaced so that will be off anyway

I still can't find this part in the likes of realoem. Anyone know under which section it is? You'd think it's under vehicle trim.

I can't find quite a lot of Z4 parts on RealOEM, been looking for the drop links for days!

Bah, sent the dealer a photo of the piece. Let them deal with it

Dealer came through, part no 5 below but almost impossible to tell from the diagram:
