Stopper — a genuine BMW part, number 54 34 8 228 951. The number stamped on the part is 54348228951; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8228951. You will find it on our Exterior Body shelf, under Other Sliding Roof / Folding Top parts.
It fits the E46 convertible (323i, 325i, 330i and M3, 2000–2006), with the M52, M54 or S54 engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on 2 diagrams, among them Folding top (54_0273) and Folding top (54_0274). BMW's catalog calls for two of these at each place it is fitted.
