I bought off of ebay China, so it was a little cheaper but took longer to get here.

Me too, really missed that on the F30’s!

I don’t think it’s there on X3’s without the extended storage option though.

I keep my work badge in there, and it would scratch up the glasses. I've had the handle replacement sunglasses holder in my previous BMWs as well, so I'm used to them being there.

Thanks for the pic! Looks awesome.

Contemplating it myself but good to see this on the AW color (mine's also AW).

Do you mind taking another pic further back?

I wouldn't go with black..... it will make the car look narrower. Keep the mirror caps body color And because you have white - "lightly" smoking out your taillights will look great!

Installed this on the glove box looks nice and fits iphone XR perfectly. It's a better spot than on the side of the transmission wall. The moulding is uneven and it won't stick properly. [IMG][/IMG]
