OK Guys here is the scoop. My part arrived today. Wrong part

Its the one for poplar wood (correct, matches perfectly) but no nav ( wrong, I have NAV)

So if you have a non nav E60 with poplar wood, i.e. one CD drive and a cubby then here is your part number.

51-45-6-951-026

BTW the part is one piece from the top under the AC vents down to the ash tray. So it includes the grey plastic surrounding both the Climate knobs and the cd drive.

Thats probably what the magician saw and thought it was the DVD.

Don't know exactly coz I didn't buy it. Its useless to me. Iz got the NAV(But under $180). They will send it back. My dealer is Bob Smith BMW in Calabasas, CA if anyone is close enough to run down there and grab it.

thanks a bunch ! i thought they are two separate pieces . so you mean there is one big piece of trim but top is grey plastic and bottom is wood ? i'm thining if there are two pieces, why would they ship in another grey plastice piece for the climate knobs and the cd slot ?

just talked to the parts mgr again and told him about the part number. he said that's for car w/nav only . i told him you saw the piece in your bare eyes but only has one cd slot. he's going to check w/the warehouse, price as well, and call me back later. let's keep my fingers crossed :'(.

You're dealer is truly amazing. Now you're giving him the part number and he still has a problem...

Hey alohalc, where are you? So Cal?? Just get the part from my dealer in Calabasas. And yes its one big part. Couldn't beleive the size of the box, but then realized why when I saw it. I am going to keep a camera in the car from now on.

BTW. Still no part number for the option with NAV
