Genuine BMW part 51 71 1 960 052: Bridge tunnel below. The number stamped on the part is 51711960052; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1960052. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Other Body equipment parts. It supersedes the older number 1960087, so a part carrying that number is the same part.
It fits every E36 body style (318i, 318ti, 320i, 323i and 325i, 1992–1999), with the M40, M42, M43, M44, M50 or M52 engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on 4 diagrams, among them Rear Floor Parts (41_0857) and Rear Floor Parts (41_0943). It weighs about 575 g (1.3 lb).
