Front headlining cover - obc blank?

[Jean]

I want to replace my aged front headlining part in my 318i with another but it's got a hole for an OBC, something my car does not have.

Part # 51441864536 is to close the hole for the sunroof controls right? IS there something like that for the OBC?

Found it :)

Here is what mine looks like, no holes other than the sunroof crank.



I am going to replace it with another, but it's got a hole next to the sunroof crank for obc.

So, found this to cover it up.

Jean that's why I was kinda lost in the PM's. I've always seen that called a check control panel, and the OBC is the part in the HVAC panel.....

So do you have a OBC hvac panel or non obc hvac panel.

Ok, my current headliner part is as seen in the picture above, just a crank for sunroof.

I picked up another headliner part and it's got a hole for the OBC and got this blank cover to go in it's place.

I have both now basically.

Wow, that seriously looks good. Very clean.

So, you can actually order this exact sunroof panel thing from the dealer still?

[Jean]

Yes, but it's about $120+

Yes, but it's about $120+

Hmm, that's good to know. I had plans on replacing it anyways.

There is one for sale right now on this forum by another member, heads up.

hey jean, what color is your headliner? Also is it vinyl?

[Jean]

It's oem headliner, it was tan. I removed all of my interior last year, taped the glass and other things and sprayed it black.
