Application and Compatibility

The presented phone holder with a slide-out cassette is designed for BMW X3, X5, and Z4 models equipped with a factory center armrest featuring a space for the so-called eject box. The component works with the vehicle's original installation, ensuring a tidy assembly process without requiring structural modifications to the console.

As part of the Dashboard category, this holder is an integral component of the cockpit's central zone, responsible for the functional use of space in the armrest and convenient access to your phone while driving.

Construction and Function of the Phone Holder

The module combines the function of an eject box and a phone holder, enabling stable placement of the device in the central part of the interior. The design is engineered to:

• provide secure, non-slip mounting for the phone in the armrest,
• maintain a cohesive, factory look of the center console,
• facilitate access to the device without unnecessary distraction from the road,
• preserve the functionality of the armrest storage compartment.

Thanks to the use of an original BMW solution, the contact surfaces and the element's geometry are precisely matched to the factory center tunnel, resulting in precise fitment with the dashboard and the absence of unwanted play.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Holder

Choosing an original phone holder for BMW X3, X5, and Z4 offers a range of practical advantages:

• Factory Interior Integration – the element is stylistically and structurally matched to the center console, thus not disrupting the cockpit design.
• Ergonomic phone position – the device is within natural reach of the driver or passenger, enhancing user comfort.
• Stable mounting – the phone does not move during driving, reducing the risk of damage and distraction.
• Possibility to retain original installation – no need for additional adapters when installing in a factory-prepared armrest.

As an OEM BMW part, the holder has been designed for durable operation in everyday driving conditions, considering mechanical loads and temperature changes within the cabin.

Condition, Origin, and Fitment

The offered phone holder comes from the original BMW equipment line and is a used part, which helps maintain consistency with other interior components in terms of construction and finish. For correct selection, it is recommended to compare the shape and type of the eject box with the element currently installed in your vehicle or with the service documentation for the specific model.

The product has an assigned OEM part number and a set of interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific equipment version. This allows for precise selection of the holder for a given BMW X3, X5, or Z4, minimizing the risk of mismatch.
