Just replaced my centre console, wouldn’t have even known where to start if it wasn’t for your video! Absolute hero. Thank you 👊🏻
happy to help!
Been 6 years and still helping people🙌🏼wouldn’t have been able to do it without you
I did this with my BMW 1 Series 118d. I have a few main take aways if you are trying this at home.
First of all thank you for this video. There are differences between my model and yours, but this still helped me a lot. This will take you a lot lot longer than the guy in the video. Took me two hours total, removal plus installation.
I would not attempt this unless you have quite a bit patience and even then don't do it unless you have to. BMW are particularly hard to remove and install their consoles and dash. I removed the cigarette lighter and replaced it with a usb port. The cigarrette lighter is a bitch to get out and in the end i had to cut it out.
On installation i found it easier to remove the two under section one on the glove box passenger side and one under the steer wheel. This is for when you are putting the main centre console in. Then go back and tighten them up after.
Hope this helps someone!
"and loose that in the depths of your seat forever" 😂 love the sarcasm ended up enjoying this more than it was helpful
I've used your video to open my centre console for me e87. Very good tutorial and I'm coming back to it to open my other e87. Solid videos. It's a shame your BMW is gone.
“Shut up phone” 😂 Make more! This video was helpful and funny 👌
Great video, dude, thanks. And, props for disassembling your interior one-handed.
Opened and fixed my ashtray thanks to this video
Great video. I dropped a screw behind the ashtray now gotta attempt this Haha
best tutorial plus that you did most of it with one hand
Thankyou for this upload. You've saved me from destroying half my interior
This is a really helpful video, thankyou!
Hey Matt, I just found your channel and even though it's been a few years, find your videos super helpful. I'm planning to do a little resto work on my 135i's centre console. My cup holders look like sh*t and I'm debating between trying to re-coat them myself or spend big bucks on replacing the whole console. Do you happen to know if the cup holders are detachable from the console? Trying to sand, clean and coat them in situ seems like it would be really tricky. Thanks for your content!
Followed your every move very helpful my BMW appreciate because I didn't break her off. I wish you did some on seat removal too
Great work here extremely clear and therefore helpful. Keep up the good work..
"and then just lose it to the depths of your seat forever" ahahah legend
Omg, thank you so much for this video! 🙌🏼
"have to buy five of those 10mm socket" I'm not alone I see 😂
9:20 silver trim around ash tray. Can it be removed without removing the whole console?
waw masterpiece work 5stars job.THX
Is there no way to get that ashtray part out without removing the entire centre console?
Impressive! And most of it with just one hand 🤣
Subbed... I see you browsing the 135i FB pages and you're always helpful, good informative video here.
Very helpful! For an automatic transmission ...it took quit a bit to get it over the shifter and ebrake, I basically had to bend the whole thing to get it out. Do you have any information about removing the cup holders?
the cup holders themselves i believe were molded to my center console piece, I'm not sure how they are on an Auto transmission
Mate,thank you soooooo much for posting this excellent video...am about to wrap mine in carbon so this video will help me a lot!!! cheers mate!!!
Matter moo i will upload a short video on my page here on youtube.... not much of a facebooker... ;-)
Thank you! Thank you very much.
👍
Let´s see, if I can make it Alcantara (Im kind of hyped 😆)
Great video!! How do you remove the stick if it is an automatic transmission?
Very helpful thank you
Thanks! I was loooking for that type of video for 2 days
Thanks a lot man for all the details, i really appreciate it 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Professional work. Very useful content.Thanks
From these video I'd finished in 20 minutes... Tnx💪👍
Great vid! You have to rip the whole center console out to get to that front piece which surrounds the ashtray???
did you ever figure out how to remove that piece without taking centre console out? I just have a storage compartment there. No ash tray/lighter or flip up lid so am hopinb it will be easier. Thanks!
I can't believe they put screws on the underside of the ashtray 😡😡😡. I did this on my E92 years ago to wrap it and it was so much easier.
Thank you for the video .. I have 116i and there a line shape bulb is occured upper side silver trim of passenger side because of heater. How could I fix this?
Thanks mate for this video 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
My bmw e88 doesn’t have that foam piece under the boot. Should I buy it? Does it make things smoother or something?
Excellent tutorial. Many thanks
Many thanks Matt. Lovely vid.
Subbed!
Can you make a vid on how to remove the dashboard
Great video! i have a 13' DCT, my question is... the center console will be removed the same as the manual transmission or differently?
great video, my only question is below my shift boot I don't have the foam, and the trim surrounding the shift boot won't come off. Are they the same as you have and do i just been to give it more force?
This man really said “this iPod part is really hard” then full skips showing how he got it out lol
The BMW 1 (E87) Side Plastic Sideskirt Cover 7066975 3146894 came off, how do you put it back on. Also the stop start metal ring keeps on falling off.
Thanks for sharing! Helped me a lot.
Does the cup holders come out ?
Thank you for the time and such detailed video!!
Gracias, aunque este grabado en ingles me a servido de mucha ayuda
Excellent video, great work!
Nice video! where did you buy those pedals? Are they just glued on or what have you done?
Great help, made my day, thanks
Amazing video man, thanks
Subbed, seen your videos in the FB group as well. Would like to accomplish this in the future sometime
I have automatic ? How do I take the head off ?
Thank you !!! VERY HELPFUL!
Hi mate, thanks for the video. Do you know if it’s possible to replace the two cupholders without taking the whole centre console out?
the whole thing has to come out
Thanks for the video, made it a breeze!
hi Matt great video thanks, when you have the interior trim out, can remove the cup holders ? i want paint them. thanks
i don't think so, i'm pretty sure they are molded into the center console
"Useless cup holders"? How dare you. I only removed my centre console to replace it with a console that has those cup holders. The one that came with my car had this useless tray thing.
very useful thanks !!
16:30 I've got just the cigarette lighter and just the aux connection, does anyone know how to remove that aux connection?
I just attempted following this DIY last weekend. I also have just the Aux interface, on my 135i, and I got stuck on the very same thing. That connector is a B*tch to remove. There's no a clip and nothing to squeeze on to release it. I couldn't even get a pick tool on it. It's just held in by friction. I ended up carefully using needle nose pliers to pry it out of the socket. I barely avoided crushing the stupid thing, but did unfortunately break off a small piece or two. The wires/slots are fine so I can certainly re-use it, but I'm actually hunting for a replacement connector.
Can you tell me what radio you have fitted, is it the business or professional radio and does it accept USB interface to play say mp3s via a usb stick? I have a Business Stereo installed with only an AUX port under the armrest but would really like to retrofit a USB port.
its just the professional radio and i have a USB port in the center console but it only charges my phone, no music interface
Hi, could you please help me with the part# of that foam insert from 11:40? The one under the shift boot and around the shift lever? I can't seem to find any info about it, can't find it on realoem, and my 118d is missing it. Thanks in advance!
Matter Moo Thanks! I'll try.
Hi, could you please let me know how to remove the air vent covers? They re quite discolored on mine and would like to repaint them
im pretty sure you just yank them
I have the same issue with my vents. Did painting them work for you?
is it possible to replace the lid of the cigarette lighter console without removing the whole centre console?mine is not closing properly
you ever find out like
FYI, a nut has a female thread, a bolt has a male thread.
Hi, very useful video. Colud you, please, check out and provide me with the OEM part number of the foam insert for shifter. I do not have such a part in my BMW E87 1 series and would like to instal it. I checked with BMW and this part - for no reason - is not available for my car model, although it is built exactly like yours as to the shifter area.
Thank you.
unfortunatly i on't own this car anymore
I think it is 25117552355
6:47 I swear everyone does this! Shit up phone 😂😂
merci
thanks so much man
I can't get the centre over my hand break?!?!
put your foot on the brake and then release the handbrake putting it in the lowest position
Same problem here. Can only guess we have our handbrakes nicely adjusted up, lol. However, do not release it as suggested that only reduces the clearance. You have to seriously yank the handbrake hard!! Then twist and force the button though the hole. Not easy, but eventually I got it out.
"Grabby things" lol
My A.C. vents are a bit ugly, is it possible to remove them and paint it?
Matter moo All of them
Matter moo i've painted mines including central..advice mask all the slat with the knob for left right air control do not mask just the knob. Anyway that slat is almost black .... I've used spray black matt paint. By the way i have to send you a beer for this movie
What pedals are those ? I have 2009 135i are those stock
135is stock pedals
Thank you so much you’re the best!
ty
youre the man :D:D:
What a pain in the ass just to remove that last silver trim
Fuk. So the whole thing has to come out to change the lighter
thanks ...
i m poor..😆😆
It was soo uncomfortable watching you use screwdrivers and plyers. Why didn't you use any plastic pry tools? They are soo cheap on ebay. Anyone doing this should invest in a set. Thanks for the video.
Can you make a vid on how to remove the dashboard
