Purpose and Function in the BMW F12/F13 Dashboard
The presented center console storage compartment carrier is specifically designed for the interior of the BMW 6 Series F12/F13, where it is responsible for the mechanical support and positioning of the console elements. Its task is to maintain the correct geometry of the storage compartment and adjacent components, so that the dashboard lines remain even and the gaps between panels are uniform.
The stable construction of the bracket reduces the risk of creaks and vibrations around the center tunnel, which is particularly important in cars with stiffer suspension. This helps the interior retain the characteristic BMW solidity and predictable behavior while driving.
Construction, Color Scheme, and Interior Integration
The element is made as a precision mounting bracket, adapted to work within the structure of the BMW Dashboard. The shape of the bracket allows for correct routing and support of the storage compartment and fits into the factory mounting points in the center console, without requiring modifications to the vehicle’s structure.
The black color facilitates integration with most color configurations of the 6 Series cockpit, remaining invisible once the assembly is complete. This preserves the interior’s aesthetics, and the element primarily serves a structural function, supporting other console components.
Installation and Technical Aspects
The bracket is intended for installation in factory mounting points, which helps maintain the original dashboard geometry. The carrier’s design allows for:
- correct positioning of the storage compartment relative to the center tunnel,
- maintaining a constant position of the console panels,
- reducing stress around the dashboard mountings.
As an interior group element, the bracket works with other center console components, providing them with stable support. When replacing, it is recommended to carefully match it to the specific model version and verify compatibility with the vehicle’s equipment.
Condition, Origin, and Part Selection
The offered bracket comes from the original BMW production line, which promotes factory fit to the cockpit structure and compatibility with the mounting system in F12/F13 models. As a used part, it may show signs of wear typical for interior components, but it retains the load-bearing and mounting function required for the proper operation of the center console.
To avoid selection errors, it is advisable to compare the mounting layout and bracket shape with the element currently installed in the car. It is also helpful to use manufacturer markings and reference numbers assigned to a specific interior configuration.

Expanding Work on the BMW Center Console
If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the center console area in your BMW and need other elements from the same group, such as brackets, panels, or additional mounts, check the available parts in the BMW Dashboards category.
Selecting components from the same mounting group helps maintain the cockpit’s structural consistency, facilitates installation, and reduces the risk of later play and unwanted noises around the center tunnel.
