Purpose and function in the dashboard

This frame is a component from the Dashboards group, responsible for the aesthetic framing of the gear shift lever in the front interior. It ensures a precise fit to the center console, stable seating, and an aesthetic transition between the lever and the other cockpit panels.

The original mounting geometry allows for secure placement in the factory points, which reduces the risk of looseness, squeaking, or unwanted vibrations during vehicle operation.

Alu Accent Grinding (Akzentschliff) finish

The characteristic Akzentschliff finish is a brushed aluminum accent that harmonizes with other interior trims of the BMW 1 Series LCI (Life Cycle Impulse). This type of surface:

• emphasizes the modern, technical character of the center console,
• is visually consistent with other aluminum inserts in the cabin,
• helps maintain an aesthetic appearance during daily use.

As a result, the frame allows you to restore the original look of the gear shift area after replacing a worn or damaged component.

Benefits of using an original frame

Using a factory gearshift console frame in the BMW E81/E87 LCI provides a number of practical benefits:

• Factory fitment – the component is designed for a specific model and generation, which translates into a proper fit for the dashboard.
• Stylistic consistency – maintaining a uniform design line with other interior trims.
• Stable mounting – correct seating in the center console reduces unwanted noises while driving.
• Professional visual effect – replacing a worn or scratched frame significantly improves the perception of the entire driver's area.

Condition of the component and service application

The offered frame is a used original BMW component, which allows you to maintain compliance with the vehicle's factory specifications. It is a practical solution both for post-accident repairs and for refreshing the interior when the existing frame shows signs of heavy wear.

Thanks to the preservation of the original construction, the component works well in service centers specializing in the BMW brand and in workshops dealing with professional interior restoration, where repeatability of assembly and a predictable final result are important.
