BMW E21 Heater Control Panel with Two Air Grilles
We supply a new aftermarket heater control panel and two remanufactured air grilles for facelift BMW E21 models from 1979 to 1982. This set is for left-hand-drive cars.
You recieve:
- One heater front panel.
- Two air grilles.
No internal mechanisms, flaps, switches, buttons, clamps or knobs are included. Transfer the required components from your existing assembly. Any missing or damaged internal parts must be sourced seperately.
ABS panel with painted markings
The replacement panel is made from ABS plastic and is not 3D printed. It reproduces the original panel layout. The orange and white areas are professionally painted after manufacture.
The original part-number markings on the back are not reproduced. This is an aftermarket replacement rather than a genuine BMW panel.
Cracks behind the heater control knobs
Original E21 heater panels are now over 40 years old. The plastic can become brittle and crack during removal. Damage may be hidden behind the three control knobs and remain difficult to spot while the panel is assembled.
Locate the concealed fixing screws before pulling the panel away. Some screws are hidden behind the knobs. Forcing the panel while a fixing remains in place can break the surrounding plastic.
When considering a used panel ask for photographs with the knobs removed. A description such as “excellent condition” does not show whether the plastic behind them is intact.
Replacement air grilles
Both air grilles have been remanufactured. The connecting tab on the back of an original grille can snap and leave the grille tilting down instead of holding its position. Inspect this conection when dismantling your old assembly.
Left-hand-drive fitment
This panel is made for EU and US left-hand-drive BMW E21 cars with the facelift heater control layout. It does not fit the right-hand-drive assembly used in UK and Australian cars.
Check the layout of your existing panel before ordering. Registration year alone may not identify the fitted assembly on a restored or modified car.
EU stock
We are a British company and also hold EU stock. Orders dispatched from our EU stock to destinations within the EU do not incur import customs charges on delivery. Check the selected stock location when ordering.
