This is a genuine BMW left steering gear cover, part number 51 71 8 234 797. The number stamped on the part is 51718234797; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8234797. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Other Body equipment parts.

It fits every E46 body style (320i, 323i, 325i, 328i and 330i, 1999–2005), with the M52, M54 or M56 engines — and the European-market versions.

BMW draws it on the Front Panel (51_3276) diagram. It weighs about 107 g (0.2 lb).

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
