Purpose and compatibility

The presented centre console armrest has been designed specifically for BMW 6 Series E63/E64 models, ensuring it maintains the factory lines of the dashboard and centre tunnel. The appropriate shape and mounting points allow for installation in place of the original component without the need for structural modifications. This is particularly important for interior repairs after wear or when restoring the vehicle to a factory-like condition.

Construction, material and colour

The armrest is made of durable materials, and its outer part is covered in Basaltgrau Grey leather, ensuring consistency with original BMW upholstery. The grey tone facilitates integration with various interior colour schemes, reducing the visibility of typical signs of use. The construction, designed for the central part of the cabin, provides stable support for the driver's and passenger's forearm.

Function in the Dashboard system

As an element of the Dashboards category, this armrest plays an important role in vehicle ergonomics. Positioned in the central part of the cockpit, it:

• stabilises the hand position while driving, improving comfort on longer journeys,
• supports convenient use of controls within the centre console area,
• contributes to the visual consistency and aesthetics of the entire dashboard.

By maintaining the original geometry and proportions, replacing a worn component with this armrest allows you to restore a cohesive, factory look to the vehicle's interior.

Condition, origin and installation aspects

The item comes from the BMW range and is a used part, which allows you to combine original fitment with a more cost-effective purchase compared to new components. A used armrest is a good solution for maintenance repairs where the priority is to maintain the original interior specification. Installation is carried out in place of the factory centre console armrest, using the mounting points provided by the manufacturer.
