Handle front - ITS — a genuine BMW part, number 51 16 2 699 050. The number stamped on the part is 51162699050; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 2699050. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Mirrors, trims, storage compartments. It supersedes the older number 8152738, so a part carrying that number is the same part.
It fits the E46 sedan, coupe and touring (320i, 323i, 325i, 328i and 330i, 1999–2006), with the M52, M54 or M56 engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on 3 diagrams, among them Headlining / Handle (51_2420) and Handle (51_3737). It weighs about 120 g (0.3 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
