E34 individual series 95 Japan selection

[shogun]

Ever heard of that? The boyz from the German board asked me about that, as they are looking for chromed inner door handles like on this 1995 model

That is the standard version in plastic black

I am not yet sure what additional items were different from the standard version. Will try to get a japanese language brochure.
You can get it from the dealer at around 30 # a piece, here as sample the p/n's for the rear door

Great find shogun, I always thought that the chrome door handles were an aftermarket or 3rd party thing, but good to see that somewhere in the world they are in fact OEM.

Would anyone in the world be able to order these parts if they use the part numbers as you had provided in the link to realoem, or is this a Japan only thing?

[shogun]

Yes, they asked me on the German board if I can buy for them here in Japan. But actually they come from Germany. Just ask you dealer to order them from Germany thru his normal route of parts ordering. Better give him the part numbers as he has to switch to European models, see my link above.
In Japn they are more expensive that in Germany as they have to import them , pay duty, add their margin etc.
Price per piece in Germany 30 EURO, normal black ones cost 20 EURO.
There are many other things for the 1995 Japan version. Just select a 525 from late 1995, European version, like this here and look thru the pages

That two tone interior is beautiful

I will ask some people here if they have a brochure in Japanese, maybe they can scan it for me.
I think the wood on the hand brake is also special
