What is this panel called

[Kibokojoe]

Heres is another one. I think this is part of the headlight setup but the illustration on RealOEM doesn't look anything like this. (Part number #11)


Part number 51711946434



Any ideas?

It's called the right inside covering. The picture on Realoem depicts the left side.

I'm pretty sure the air cleaner snorkle fits in the round cut-out, not sure if you can mount it right with the beat up tabs however...my US model 2.5 l has the same part.

Good luck,

John

It depends on engine type, not all E34 have it installed.

Here's the correct part number you need for the right side covering. 51711946434 Realoem says it's good from '89-'93, unless you have the headlight cleaning system.

The circle cutout accepts the intake horn for the air cleaner, the cutout has a plastic plug for the M5 since the air intake is on the other side. There are a couple of plastic screws and anchors for attaching it as well, see item #12 on your diagram.

Pelican parts show a pic of it but no price. Also tried Bavauto and Autohaus but they don't carry it. Anyone know where I can get this panel. For now I will weld the old one and put it back on. I have a plastic welder, works pretty good as long as I weld a piece of stainless screen into the tab.

dealer? BMA?
junkyard / parted out car?

[Kibokojoe]

BMA ...Not on their site but I asked if they could locate one

[Paul in NZ]

the alternator cooling duct also goes into the "inner cover" on my 535

Interesting....the intake manifold goes into mine.
