Secret compartment on LCI 2

I just traded in my 2019 F55 S for a 2024 F56 JCW. I know that the LCI 2 molded the air vents in but does anyone think that if I was to buy the LCI 1 vents and trims, will they work and would I be able to retrofit the secret compartment?

Hello,

I think it would take a bunch of work and you would have to swap out the inner vents also. I would not do it unless you have a doaner car maybe, i cant see everything in the parts catalog ETK thats different.

I’m also missing the secret compartment as well as the mode switches on the stick shift, my hand always goes there 1st,
note to justice system….6 months isn’t enough time to change 10yrs behaviour…
