E36 Coupe rear window hardware?

[JamesL71]

I am looking for the part number of the nut that secures the rear window to the body of the E36 coupe(not the hinge side, the body side). There are 2 of these nuts per side... I believe they are M6, but have a wide floating collar on them. The ones from my '99 M3 are gold.

For the life of me I haven't been able to find them on realoem. Obviously I could find a random nut that would work, but would really like to keep all OEM pieces here.

Any help would be appreciated!

These?

Unfortunately no, that diagram doesn't list the part in question. I am looking for the 2 nuts that secure the rear vent window to the B-pillar.

Just ran to the garage to grab a pic. They are M6 with a wide floating collar.

I found something on Schiedmann that looks to be the correct part:

When I google that part BMW part #, it shows a different looking nut... but it is entirely possible it has been superseded/changed, as it appears that this nut is used on tons of BMWs from the E10 to the F-series.

Just pulled these on a buddy's car. They're indeed floating washers captured on a small nut. Usually the thread and pitch are included in the RealOEM charts, make sure they match and you should be good to go.

I dropped one into the pillar, so just went with a standard washer and nut, no issues.

Right. There has been a supersession
