Application and Function in BMW 1 Series E87/E87N

This switch is dedicated to controlling the electric window regulator on the driver's side in BMW 1 Series E87/E87N models, positioned on the right side of the vehicle. The component is responsible for precise window raising and lowering, working in conjunction with the factory comfort module and door wiring.

The original design ensures proper operation of locks, control functions, and the correct tactile feedback of the button travel, contributing to convenient everyday use.

Construction, Color, and Interior Fitment

The switch is manufactured in black, allowing for an aesthetically pleasing integration into the factory door panel of the BMW 1 Series. By maintaining the original housing geometry and connectors, the part fits the standard mounting opening and electrical harness without requiring modifications.

Using an original switch from the same component group minimizes the risk of mounting play, improper fit, or color discrepancies in the plastic compared to other door console elements.

Benefits of Using an Original Switch

Choosing this switch for your BMW 1 Series E87/E87N helps maintain the consistency of the window control system and reduces potential electrical compatibility issues. The part is from the BMW OEM line, which promotes:

• maintaining the correct button operating characteristics and window regulator response,
• proper fit with the factory door panel,
• preserving uniform color and plastic texture within the interior,
• easier diagnostics in case of potential electrical system faults.

A used part from this group offers a sensible compromise between repair cost and maintaining original build quality and fit.

Condition, Verification, and Installation

The switch is offered as a used original BMW part, meaning it comes from a dismantled vehicle and has been verified for its suitability for further use. Such components are often chosen by workshops and owners who wish to restore full window control functionality without investing in a new aftermarket part.

The switch is installed in its factory location, utilizing the original door wiring connector. This makes the replacement process predictable and limits the risk of compatibility issues.
