I figured I would finnaly change out the passenger side trim that’s been sitting in my garage since I bought my 7 over 2 years ago. The dealer threw in a pair of them for free after me and the service manager discussed some of the common issues with the car. I used trusty e38.org for directions and figured I’d take a couple of pics while I worked:

Here’s “the sled” before I started working:

I was a little aggressive with the tilt button and broke the switch…I called my boy at the dealer and he said he’s take care of it, so I’ll be doing this again in 3-5 business days..hehehe:

If anyone needs a trim piece with a slight scuff, let me know!
Thanks again e38.org! Engine bay cleaning/carpet shampoo on Friday morning, pics to follow!
