Centre console mini storage box trim
I came across this storage trim for the centre gear console to replace the blanks. Seems like a really good idea and will be quite handy for small bits like coins, tickets etc.
Has anyone tried this or any thoughts? ![]() Found it on AliExpress: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqCRGsE |

Some members of the german G20 forum already have these installed.
Itīs not big enough for the key but for other small things. I already ordered one but itīs still on the way around the globe.

Yeap, I've seen it as well and it looks quite nifty. I'm waiting for a RHD version cause at the moment it's LHD-only.

Wish it had a lid on it (I love my F10 mini storage tray with the lid that closes to hide it). Still, I think I need one. Time to order.

Got it:
![]() ![]() They've stuck strips of felt on the bottom of it but I'd already made a cutout for it and have a bigger piece of felt I'll use instead. |

That looks good. Can it hold the key?
*based on the photos on aliexpress it looks like it does.

I removed the whole center unit but some drill a hole in the old piece and get it out in pieces.

I changed my iDrive controller to one with touch so i already had the center unit removed.
Is the surrounding plastic hard enough to work with a tool in that area without scratching anything?

Yes, provided that it's a plastic trim tool.
