Head rest cover — a genuine BMW part, number 51 46 8 226 506. The number stamped on the part is 51468226506; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8226506. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Other Body equipment parts.
It fits the E46 sedan and coupe (320i, 323i, 325i, 328i, 330i and M3, 1999–2006), with the M52, M54, M56 or S54 engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on 2 diagrams, among them Rear window shelf / sun blind electr (51_3256) and Rear window shelf / sun blind electr (51_3742). BMW's catalog calls for four of these at each place it is fitted.
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
