Firstly - just saying hello - have been registered on here for a while, but haven't had the need to ask any questions!

Recently picked up an 89 325i 4 door - I bought it to sell on, but have now decided to keep it. Its a high miler (189k) but has a BMW history up to 170k and is in quite decent condition.

Anyhoo - have been able to source most parts I need for it, except for these - and they're more than likely the cheapest I'll have to buy. Basically the two blanking plates beside the demister and hazard lights are missing - the previous owner had some mess of a phone holder stuck in there. I haven't been able to find a part number for them, and was wondering if anyone knows it?? Saw one on eBay that I placed a bid on - but I'd imagine they'll be cheaper from the dealer.

Cheers

If I was you I would keep an eye out in the parts for sale section, look for someone breaking a car, you will probably get them for peanuts :D

TBH mate, when breaking a car the less you have to throw away the better. And yeah some one breaking one may ask for a couple of quid to cover postage and a beer, but it will always be cheaper than a breaker and ebay.
