REALOEM alternatives
 

OT, but is there any other places other than realoem.
Usually they are pretty good at listing seperate superceding PN's.

I'm well aware pricing and certain other things may not be uptodate on ROEM.
But it's weird. Cause I have valid PN for a trim I want to replace....but when I do a particular PN search on a part, I can't even seem to pull it up either under REOM or any of the typical bmw parts sites....

This?

RealOEM.com - Part Search

I didn't have any problems finding it elsewhere:

LMGTFY

Good day,

While that part number doesn't actually come up in ROEM anymore, pulling the part number or the last seven digits of the part number in any search engine (google, bing) will give you what part was originally assigned that number... Right rear hatch trim... Pretty sure the gray and black interior X5's in the Pull It Yard (PIY) here had them still... Was out there today looking for my mirror... What color is yours? There is a guy in East Setauket, NY that has a black and gray one listed on ebay... He has an offer button and three bucks shipping...

Cheers!!

I don't even know how you managed to pull it up under RealOem.
I figured maybe I was under the vehicle specific so I back out to the root ///main, and tried doing a search via that PN as well. Go figure but no dice.

Usually if it's been superceded, I'll pull it up, but unless I got some bad ju ju on my side, I was not able to pull it up
