This is a perfect replacement for the OEM E39 armrest tray, which also houses the magnetic latch that closes the spring-loaded armrest. We understand how annoying it is to not be able to close your armrest due to a failing or broken armrest tray.
This replacement adds a screw hole to further strengthen the tray to stay in its place. It does not rely on the center console trim panel to hold it in place. Two 58mm/65mm cup holders can also be added to accommodate most canned drinks and coffee cups.
Main Feature
- Improved design that does not rely on other interior parts to secure your armrest.
- OEM-like design to blend in your interior perfectly
- Optional cupholders provide more function to your armrest tray
- High-quality industrial-grade carbon fiber compounded material
Installation
Remove the magnets and their hosing on the original tray and insert them into the replacement. Place the new tray and screw in the included Philip's head screw and you're good to go.
Here is a video guide if you need it (you probably don't it's so easy :)
