Rear right window guide — a genuine BMW part, number 51 36 8 168 258. The number stamped on the part is 51368168258; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8168258. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Other Body equipment parts. It supersedes the older number 8130382, so a part carrying that number is the same part.
It fits the E36 convertible (318i, 323i, 325i, 328i and M3, 1994–1999), with the M42, M43, M44, M50, M52 or S50 and other engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on the Door Window Lifting Mechanism Rear (51_2102) diagram. It weighs about 119 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.
