Z4C - Storage Compartment

[curvature]

My new to me Z4C has the storage compartment between/behind the seats.

However the catch for it has broken so I cannot open it. The handle part is missing.

I'm being lazy here so can someone tell what I need to fix it. Is it just the catch or a whole new lid etc?

Thanks.

The lid is likely to be expensive and hard to come by as not many coupes are broken. It is also not a shared component with the roadster. You probably only actually need the handle, which does seem to be the same as the roadster, but this is not a separately listed part.

I have a broken handle (from a roadster) that you can have if you wanted to effect a repair.

CAUTION: be very careful when removing any of the rear console components as the various brackets/lugs are fragile and easily broken, and it is quite possible that you will do more damage than you are trying to fix.

Thanks for the kind offer.

How do the coupe/roadster differ in this instance?

I'll have a proper look at mine tonight.

The panels are different shapes and the roadster cover has an extra (larger) handle towards the top which I think is to manually release the roof when stowed. The bottom handle is the same, at least the broken one which came off a roadster looks Identical to the one on my coupe.

I have this available if it's what you need? Off my coupe in perfect condition.

Part 5 is fine, it's the catch at the bottom of part 14 that's broken.

What do you want for it Zedebee?

What, for my broken handle? You can have it for free, just PM me your address and I’ll pop it in the post. BTW, part number 14 in the picture above is for the Roadster, note top handle.
