E30 Underdash Knee Cover/Trim - 51451917351

Overview

A very commonly missing panel on the interior of an E30 is the panel located just below the steering column. The OEM part is made of this very fragile and thin cardboard-type material. Not only is it expensive, but it's also fragile. If the back clip breaks or comes loose, it often gets caught on the pedals and gets ripped off! Also if you are running our e30 boosterless pedal bracket, it doesnt make sense to modify the opening on an OEM part for the new pedals.

Here is another great alternative from Garagistic! Here is the original panel reproduced in a more modern material: Injection plastic! Durable, lightweight, and made to fit in the same factory location!

Excellent fitment and is finished with a textured surface similar to the OEM factory panel. Comes with Fitting screws and clips as well (however, if you prefer to use the OEM Retainer Pins, you can get those to work. You will need to order 3 units of part number 51451916579 if you wish to do that instead of using provided hardware)
