I'm hoping that someone can help me out here:

I have a 2009 JCW Convertible with the basic stereo. I'm considering the Alpine upgrade, but since the entire interior of my car is black, I'm looking for black A-pillars with tweeter mounts, that will fit my R57. I've seen them in gray, but really need black.

Any help/direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

Just ask a dealer to look it up and order for you. It would be the R57 A-pillar covers for Harman Kardon. The version for an R57 would be available only in black. R57 pillars do not come in gray.

I believe the part numbers are 51439145037 and 51439145038

thats carzy...$33 with no tweeter pod, and $88 with a hole cut out

 

Sorry, I chose the wrong part numbers to put in my previous post, corrected now.

No surprise about the difference in price. They sell much fewer of the tweeter version, but the overhead cost to get it into production is just as much as the regular version.
