    E46 mounting bracket

    Hello folks,


    I've been looking into getting an ***** head unit for my bmw and I'm trying to find a bracket that i will need to relocate the ecc module to where the sunglasses holder currently is. i found some helpful videos on youtube where they list what part i would need, but just to be awkward i live in the UK and have a right hand drive model so i basically need a mirror of that bracket linked and don't want to buy the wrong part so was hoping someone here would know what part i need.


    The one linked in the video was this;


    Mounting bracket


    The one i think i need for RH drive is 51167001411, but I'm not sure, but hopefully someone here is

    The first step is to determine which bracket is in the car now. Open the link and check items #1 and #12. Item #1 has dividers in the horizontal section where the DSC switch is located. Item #12 doesn’t have dividers. This difference is not the only difference in these parts, but is how you determine which part is in your car.

    Ah yes, forgot to mention that its the version without the dividers, the strip i have with the heated seats and dsc buttons is one unit

    Looks like item #12 is what you need. Go to www.realoem.com and enter the last 7 characters of the car’s VIN. Hit enter and bookmark the page. Scroll down to vehicle trim. Scroll way down to center armrest/storage trays to get the right part #. Why? Your car is RHD and the part could be different than the same thing for a LHD car.
