Purpose and function of the component

The presented centre console cover is designed specifically for the BMW 1 Series E87 as a mounting element for the cigarette lighter socket / power socket in the centre tunnel. It is responsible for:

• stable mounting of the cigarette lighter socket in the factory location,
• aesthetic finishing of the opening in the centre console,
• maintaining ergonomic access to power for accessories inside the vehicle.

Thanks to a design consistent with BMW factory standards, the component works with the original cigarette lighter socket, ensuring a secure fit and reducing the risk of looseness or unwanted vibrations while driving.

Colour and interior matching

The cover is finished in a beige colour scheme, characteristic of light interior configurations of the BMW E87. This allows for maintaining a consistent stylistic line of the cockpit, without the contrasts typical of universal or non-factory parts.

Selecting the correct shade is particularly important when:

• replacing a damaged or scratched frame in the centre tunnel,
• restoring the original interior look after modifications,
• performing precise cabin restoration in vehicles with light upholstery.

The original surface finish makes it easy to keep clean and reduces the visibility of typical signs of wear, which is important for daily use.

Construction and installation in the BMW E87

The element belongs to the Car sockets and cigarette lighters group, serving as a support and masking component for the power socket in the centre console. The shape and mounting points are adapted to the factory BMW E87 tunnel, which allows for installation in place of the original part without the need for adjustments or interference with the console structure.

The used OEM part is a good solution when:

• the original cover is cracked, deformed, or missing a fragment,
• the cigarette lighter socket mount has been damaged,
• it is necessary to replace the element after removing accessories mounted in the centre tunnel.

Factory fitment promotes quick installation and minimizes the risk of incorrect socket positioning, which could make it difficult to plug in devices or cause them to fall out.

Condition, origin, and benefits of choosing OEM parts

The offered centre console cover is an original BMW component from the secondary market. Compared to replacements, it ensures dimensional compliance with the factory tunnel, predictable material behaviour over time, and compatibility with the original cigarette lighter socket.
