Purpose and fitment

The presented BMW 3 SERIES 1 E92 E93 LCi Cover rear console with light package rear black has been designed specifically for BMW 3 Series E92 and E93 models after the facelift (LCI). The component belongs to the Dashboards group, but functionally it is responsible for covering the rear part of the center tunnel, providing an aesthetic finish and space for lighting elements in the rear cabin area.

The placement in the vehicle is the rear part of the interior, which is important when planning repairs or replacing elements in the center tunnel area. Thanks to the factory design, the cover works with original mounts and wiring, which facilitates installation and reduces the risk of fitment issues.

Construction, color scheme, and interior integration

The cover is made in a black color, consistent with the typical interior color scheme of the BMW 3 Series E92/E93 LCI. This color selection allows for maintaining a consistent cabin look without the need for additional modifications or painting. The construction provides space for the rear console lighting package elements, which improves visibility and comfort of use in the rear area, especially after dark.

The element is prepared to work with factory BMW components, which promotes stable mounting and limits the formation of unwanted gaps or rattles while driving. As a result, the interior retains an orderly, serial character, and the rear part of the center tunnel remains properly protected and aesthetically finished.

Functional characteristics and service application

The BMW 3 SERIES 1 E92 E93 LCi Cover rear console with light package rear black is particularly useful for:

• post-accident repairs in the rear interior area,
• cabin renovation after mechanical damage or cracking of the original cover,
• restoring equipment completeness after dismantling center tunnel elements,
• interior modernization while maintaining the original BMW specification.

The used nature of the part allows for an economical restoration of the interior's functionality and appearance, while maintaining original geometry and compatibility with factory elements. This is a solution that works well both in workshops specializing in the BMW brand and for conscious users independently completing components for their car.
