Hi guys.

Anyone know what the part number for a scuttle panel is? Called BMW today and they said I'd have to buy a whole roof section...

Thanks!!

Been looking. I can't seem to find many around with the section I need still intact. Always looking though.

Scuttle panel is 41 32 1 913 778. Note that there are restrictions on buying this part, since it has to have the VIN stamped into it - a job that the supplying dealer will give to the most inexperienced and incompetent employee they can find.

Correct. It seams they like to stamp the part number on it not the VIN number!
