What It Is / How It Works

This is an inner central armrest glove box switch catch button, a replacement button switch for the central armrest of a BMW 5 Series F10, F11 or F18 car.

Who It's For / Use Cases

Replacement catch buttons of this type suit drivers of left-hand drive cars who need to replace a worn or missing glove box catch button in the central armrest. They also suit owners who want a matching button in black or silver when restoring the armrest area.

How to Use / Care

1. Use it to replace the glove box switch catch button in the inner central armrest of a compatible left-hand drive car.
2. Compare your car's model and year with the Fits models row in Product Specifications before fitting the button.

How to Choose

Start with fit. Confirm the car is left-hand drive and match its model and year to the Fits models and Model A or Model B rows in Product Specifications, since the armrest switch can differ between earlier and LCI cars. Next, choose the colour that matches the existing armrest trim, black or silver. Finally, check that the connector style matches the old button so the replacement plugs in without cutting or splicing.
