Purpose and function in the BMW F10/F11 LCI

The presented ashtray with storage compartment has been designed specifically for the interior of the facelifted (LCI) BMW 5 Series F10/F11 generation. The component is mounted in the centre console area, providing ergonomic access while driving and maintaining the original styling lines of the interior.

Thanks to the factory fitment, correct mounting gaps are maintained, and the surfaces align perfectly with other panels, avoiding the "tacked-on" accessory effect. This is particularly important when restoring an interior or returning a vehicle to a configuration consistent with its factory equipment.

Construction and ergonomics of use

The ashtray also serves as a lockable storage compartment, allowing for the discreet storage of small items within the driver's reach. The design provides for easy opening and closing, as well as convenient cleaning of the ashtray insert. The applied solutions reduce the spilling of contents while driving and make it easier to keep the cabin tidy.

The factory geometry of the component ensures compatibility with the original mounts in the BMW F10/F11 LCI, which translates into stable seating and the absence of unwanted play. This is significant both from the point of view of comfort and the elimination of potential rattles or vibrations during operation.

Benefits of using an original BMW component

Using an original ashtray with storage in a BMW 5 Series allows for maintaining the visual and functional consistency of the interior. Compared to aftermarket replacements, the OEM component is designed with a specific model in mind, which translates into:

• precise fitment to the shape of the centre console,
• preservation of the uniform styling line of the cockpit,
• proper interaction with factory mounts and guides,
• easier installation and service removal.

For users who are upgrading or restoring interior equipment after previous modifications, such a component is a practical way to restore the original character of the cabin.

Condition and service application

The product is in used condition, making it an attractive solution for budget repairs or stage-by-stage interior restoration. This type of component works perfectly as a replacement part in the event of damage to the opening mechanism, wear of the working surface, or missing parts following the removal of previous equipment.

Thanks to the preservation of the original design, the ashtray storage can be used both for standard replacement of a damaged component and for interior conversion to a configuration consistent with the LCI version.
