Purpose and function of the component

The described cigarette lighter trim is part of the rear centre console in BMW 5 Series E60 and E61 models. It is responsible for the stable mounting of the power socket and the aesthetic finishing of this area, which is important both for the comfort of rear-seat passengers and for the overall appearance of the interior. The element belongs to the Dashboards group, but is functionally linked to the rear part of the centre tunnel and the cabin's electrical equipment.

Colour and interior matching

The trim is finished in beige, allowing for a seamless blend with light-coloured upholstery configurations used in the BMW 5 Series E60/E61. The beige colour helps maintain a uniform stylistic line of the interior, and the appropriately selected shade facilitates integration with factory console panels, door cards, and the dashboard. As a result, the element works well both for spot replacement of a damaged trim and for broader restoration of a light-coloured interior.

Installation characteristics

The rear centre console trim is designed for installation in the rear part of the vehicle, in the area accessible to rear-seat passengers. The design provided by the manufacturer allows for precise fitment with the original console, which reduces the risk of looseness, squeaking, or unsightly gaps. The element is prepared to work with the factory cigarette lighter socket, ensuring that after proper installation, it restores the functionality of powering accessories in the rear of the cabin.

Condition and service application

The product is used, making it a reasonable choice for maintenance repairs and budget-friendly interior restoration. Such elements are particularly useful when the original trim has cracked, deformed, or shows visible signs of wear. Replacing it with an original component from the secondary market allows you to maintain the factory character of the BMW interior without the need to resort to replacements with uncertain fitment.

Benefits of using the original trim

Using the original cigarette lighter trim in the rear centre console offers several significant benefits:

• maintaining a cohesive interior style thanks to the appropriate colour and shape,
• secure fitment to the factory centre console,
• stable mounting of the cigarette lighter socket and convenient use by passengers,
• possibility of economical repair without interfering with the dashboard structure.
