Hardtop Lock Covers

It seems my new (to me) E85 has had a hardtop fitted previously, and when it was removed the rubber cap/cover that fits over the hardtop "lock" on the car was lost..

Would anyone happen to know what it's actually called, or have a part number perhaps as I'd like to get some...
 
Hazarding a guessbid say it's item 14 in the link. I've got a set somewhere I can let you have as I don't normally take my hardtop off. PM me if you want and I'll try dig them out for you!

it is indeed that part, and I also recall the previous owner giving me a bag with some bits he didn't know where they fitted, in there I just found the two I needed - but massive thanks for the kind offer.

I also found: 542170763989.9 and 542170763990.9 (The hard top lock mechanism covers) which I understand are (or at least were) a little scarce..
 
You mean the rubber covers for when the top is down? I have a spare one somewhere can't remember which side though
 
Those aren't rubber caps/covers, Ranski.

I believe he means the plastic covers that fit over the hole. Which the hardtop locks slot into.

Sounds like the picture I posted?

Ben G, You went to the hassle of googling and posting that? You must have a busy and exciting life ;)

Yeah, it took ages to Google 'clarkson smug face', copy the img tag and then paste it here, and click submit.

30 seconds of my life wasted, whilst watching a movie in my living room.

Lighten up :lol:

P.s. It took longer to type this reply, than to post that pic above :wink:

Welcome mate :thumbsup:
 
I believe Savage found both "sets" of covers. The ones which cover the hardtop fitment holes (as Marlon has pictured) and also the hardtop side covers (as Ranski has pictured)! :)
 
Hi - yes, I'm sorry I caused some confusion. I was indeed originally asking after the smaller rubber post covers, but then I remembered there was a bag in the boot, and in there I found both the rubber post covers AND the larger plastic/fabric Hardtop lock covers, which I currently don't need as I don't have a hardtop.

Sorry for the confusion...
 
I managed to find myself a hard top for my '06 Z4 3.0si, but upon inspection - found that it's missing the lock covers! Argh!

Anyone know where one can pickup a set of these, or if anyone is selling?
