VENT COVER

[sabot67]

Hi, I am looking for a Driver's side vent cover (black) for a 1970 2002. Does anyone have one that they are willing to part with? Here is a photo of my broken vent cover:

Still looking- anyone have one? Or, can you direct me to a business which may have them in stock? I am a US service member serving in Poland so I have been dealing with German companies for parts and am not familiar with what is in the US- so if you can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

Really? No one has one or has an idea of a business that I can contact in the US to try to buy one?

I see the parts depicted in the diagram linked below from Maximillian Importing, but they are listed as Not Available, and no part numbers are shown. Left cover is #4, right cover is #6.

Perhaps you can contact Jaymic in UK, or W&N or Cahsel in Germany about new or used parts.

Late thanks for the reply, but I am a Non-Polish speaker living in Poland. Your idea is great, but I have already checked with BMW dealers in Germany, Poland and the USA. Thanks again.

Hello All- I am still looking for this part- can anyone help?

Hello all- I gave up the search for a while, but here I am again! This is the only part that I need to have a nearly perfect interior in my 1970 '02. Can anyone help?

Hello you may want to try Firma Cashel in Germany, he may be able to better assist you. I rarely seen them available here only a couple times in USA. There is a veterama old car swap meet in Germany too I think in March you may find them there too!!

Thanks for the suggestion Mike- being in Europe I have queried all the 2002 specialists of which I am aware. Based upon in person experiences with Cashel, I am very hesitant to ever do business with them again- a long story. But I am finding that when you have an older car, sometimes you are forced to bite the bullet and deal with businesses that you would normally walk away from because they are the only one that have the parts.

But I am interested in this old car swap meet that you speak of- I looked at the Veterama website - it looks fairly general old car centric part show. I read about vendors, but did not find anything about a swap meet. Do you have first hand knowledge of the event? Hockenheimring Baden-Württember is a 13 hour drive one way for me, so I am not really interested in making the trip unless I know more about the event than what their webpage shows.

Thanks Again for your suggestion & if you know more about Veterama, please let me know.

I have not had the pleasure of visiting yet but you may also want to check the german 02 club. "02.de" www.bmw-02-club.de They can get pretty specific with you..Let me know how it turns out.

Unfortunately I am not going to be able to go- but there is another show in April in Essen that I may be able to attend.

[Mikesmalaga72]

Okay, meanwhile I will keep my eye out for one here then.

Hello All- I am still looking. Almost had a pair (L & R) from a fellow member that advertised parts for sale- but then he disappeared and does not return emails.
