i believe you have to purchase the whole center trim, not just the button.

shit, just for one missing tab!. Theres gotta be another way, no one had this issue?

Why is the car missing so many random pieces? If you don't mind me asking..

Also try www.getbmwparts.com - These guys should have what you're looking for.

Its missing that one piece, the DSC OFF button the headlight control piece is a bit damaged. Why its missing, I'm not sure, i went to go check the car out and the guy didn't really give me much of a reason.

Found it! Here's the link http://parts.bmwofsouthatlanta.com/p...317841136.html

Why not as part of the terms of sale require him to replace the missing pieces.

Considering the DSC off and Headlight switches are a safety item a dealer should have to fix them. If it's a private seller, then say you will pay him your agreed price + OEM replacements. This would save you the hassle of finding the parts.

good idea, but the parts were minuscule, mainly scratched up and missing that one DTC off button. Anyway i found the parts i needed with the link i provided,so if anyone has this issue, hopefully this will help. Finding this part took me 2 days, its not even listed at REALOEM.
