Hi, I need both centre console plugs in Black if anybody has any spare. Part No. 51167053123. The dealer just laughed when quoting me the price...10.36 each plus VAT....I figured I can live without them unless a couple turn up at a sensible price.
 
Take the ones from behind the seat you cant normally see and put them at he front, that's what I did 8)

These have doubled in price since I last enquired. At £5 they were a rip off.

I'm looking to 3D print some soon though if anybody is interested.

I was thinking exactly the same thing as I read this thread - and you beat me to the 3D Printing part too :rofl:

I'm literally drawing these up this very second :)

Although currently out of ABS so waiting for delivery this week.

I'll provide the files shortly for those who have 3D Printers.

Genius :thumbsup:

+1
Exactly what I did when one broke, I then used a bit of sticky stuff to hold the broken one in place at the back so it looks right but is easy to remove still.
I too couldn't believe a tenner! WTF even by BMW's standards!
 
3D Model Done.

if anyone does make some would really like 2 please :roll:

I'm currently awaiting delivery of some ABS - Almost everywhere was out of stock of Black when I ordered too, so black may take a little longer to get delivered.

I'll let you know once it's arrived if no-one prints for you before that

Black does seem to be in short supply as you say.
