dying4004 · 06-04-2015, 06:36 AM

guys

i bought a 2010 323i.

the idrive dial's top black face is worn out.

is it possible to get a replacement?

cheers

man that looks awesome.

can it be fitted on my e90?

i am not that good in handy works? do i need to take to someone specialized to fit or can it be done myself?

cheers

That's only for the old style Idrive, PRE LCI I believe.

Twenza may be correct that is pre-LCI only but check out the pics in the link that shows which exact idrive knobs this can replace.

This is quality gear - used them in my previous E36 and E46 M3s.

how did you do it? sounds nice.

some instruction would be great.

cheers

lemonpark · 06-07-2015, 01:07 AM

sent to powdercoating place and got it back

I'm sure you can just paint or something yourself too if you'd like. the controller just snaps off so masking it wouldn't be a problem
