Hi guys,

Im looking to replace my front door armrests/handles for a E46 M3. Just wondering where you guys get your OEM parts from? I rung up BMW today and they wanted $399 + GST each! :yikes:

Cheers,
Zayne

Best best would probably be ebay UK or US for second hand.

PM t.wak, he may be able to get you a better deal on the items brand new. He works at a dealership here in Vic.

Thanks guys. Has anyone ever bought from http://www.eurocarautoparts.com? I just stumbled across this in a Google search and they are 1/4 of the price of what BMW wanted to charge.

www.getbmwparts.com (Tischer Performance)
www.solcalmotorsport.com

I have recently ordered from both.
Damn cheap prices.
USPS seems to be the favoured shipping handler by shops in the USA, definitely not favourable to the buyer if you are looking for fast turn around.

ecs tuning and turner motorsport are good and sharp prices

Thanks all. Ill check them out.

Be weary of USA for parts that MAY be RHD specific - i.e if your M3 has folding mirrors - you may be in trouble with the front armrests (US will supply the LEFT side with the hole, where-as you'll want the RIGHT side to have the hole)... Keen to know how you get on.

Thinking as I type - the LEFT side I have comes with a dummy cover - so perhaps both left and right will have a hole to take the mirror controls and you'll be okay...

Thanks mate. I ordered via the part number which was for the RHD so should be fine....I Hope...
