Wood trim Swap Question

supersanj · 02-25-2012, 04:25 PM

New member here! been surfing this forum for a while, but just recently got a 328xi and it came with wood trim that i don't particularly like. I was looking at the piano black or aluminum trim from tischer, but was wondering if it came with clips or would i have to transfer my clips from the wood trim? thanks in advance!

There's not really clips. It's more of a metal plug that is not removable from the trim that plugs into a hole in the location of the trim. So no you won't have to replace the clips because there are no clips to replace

No issues, easy to replace,

Just got a set of OEM Dark Glacier aluminum trim from Tischer and all of the metal tabs/plugs came with the new trim, so no changing parts from old trim to new trim. Install was pretty straightforward. I could do my car again in 30 minutes now that I've done it once. Time to place your order!

Your really gonna spend that kind of money? Why not do the 3m wrap?

thanks for all the help guys, now just time to decide what trim to get lol. probably not going with the carbon leather just because its too much money, and isn't the entire trim.
