Evening guys,

My X6 came with roof rails and the dealer refused to remove them. I've had a search and found conflicting reports that it is a big job and requires the head-liner to be dropped, others saying they can be removed simply by unbolting from the roof.

Either way, I am going to need 2 new roof mouldings (the ones I have now have holes for the rails).

Does anyone know if there's somewhere I can get these parts in the UK besides from BMW? I have a friend with a paint shop who will paint them for me, but need to find the part.

Part No's are: 51137250401 & 51137250401

If not, I guess BMW it is.

Cheers
