Purpose and fitment for BMW X5 / X6 E70 E71

The presented component is dedicated to installation in the front center console of BMW X5 and BMW X6 E70/E71 generation vehicles. The design, based on the original BMW factory specifications, guarantees proper alignment with other cockpit components without the need for modifications or adjustments to the mounts. This solution is particularly useful when replacing a worn ashtray or completing the interior after repairs.

Construction, color scheme, and integration with the dashboard

The ashtray with an integrated storage compartment has been designed as part of the Dashboard system, allowing it to blend harmoniously with the center console panel. The black finish ensures a consistent match with standard BMW interior configurations, without any differences in shade or texture that could disrupt the aesthetics of the cockpit.

The solution combines the function of a closable ashtray with additional utility space, which improves the ergonomics of using the center console. The well-thought-out shape of the front panel facilitates operation from both the driver and passenger seats while maintaining an organized interior appearance.

Functionality in the front console area

The component serves a dual role: it provides space for an ashtray and creates a practical storage compartment within the driver's reach. This configuration allows for:

• maintaining order in the front part of the cabin,
• aesthetically concealing the contents of the compartment when the lid is closed,
• preserving the original functional layout of the BMW center console.

Thanks to the factory geometry of the housing, the installation process is straightforward, and the component does not protrude from adjacent panels after installation, which is important for both visual and practical reasons.

Characteristics of the used product

The offered component is a used original BMW part, which means it has been removed from a vehicle and retains the manufacturer's factory specifications. This type of part is a good choice for maintenance repairs when you want to preserve the original look and construction of the interior without resorting to aftermarket replacements with uncertain fitment.
