Identification ring — a genuine BMW part, number 12 12 1 706 188. The number stamped on the part is 12121706188; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1706188. You will find it on our Electrical shelf, under Ignition lead, spark plugs.

It fits the E36 sedan (318i, 1992–1998), with the M40 engine — and the European-market versions.

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
