R50/52/53 Euro Passenger Shelf actually in stock anywhere?
I ordered one along with the liner in late august (I think) knowing it was not in stock at the vendor but it had a mid September due date and that was OK. I've gotten three emails from them since, pushing the delivery date back to October, then November, and just now early January.
Anybody know of a vendor that actually has these in stock?
saddly, seems there are more crickets in the first gen section. I have a new found love for my R53 as I am restoreing it to last another 10 years. Have you tried Ebay or even UK ebay. I was able to find some euro specific parts for so much cheaper on UK ebay and had them shipped over. Saved a ton for a used part VS new here. now Im on the hunt for euro specific tailights that are not $300.
You look at used?
It is an easy part to yank before selling a car to recoup some $$...
Maybe a WTB/WANTED post will get you one...heck I remember when I got mine new years ago, the $$ was borderline crazy...
The Euro Parcel Shelf was removed from the MINIUSA parts catalog many years ago. Any vendor here would have to import it on their own. Try some overseas vendors like NewMiniStuff.
What OP was talking about the passenger side 51161186416 .
But the rubber insert that goes on that driver side is still available. So, if you need that or bought the main piece in the past and need the rubber insert its here.
Prlple - The 51161186416 Passenger Side Euro shelf was delayed in europe, it was available for some time then went on a extended delay in august. I will see what I can do to get things moving on our side for you. As always you can PM me if you need something.
We might have something in the future for driver side.
Thanks ECS. I already have the driver's side. I see your site now shows NLA but my pending order still has a Jan delivery date. PM headed your way.
EDIT: I see now that it's the driver's side shelf that's NLA; the passenger side still shows available, just concerned now about the moving target date.
