Missing a part

Though only a minor issue, it bugs me like crazy.

The left seek button on my r56 is missing, seems to be the only thing wrong with my baby and I am having the hardest time finding this part.

I am hoping that one of you fine individuals will be able to help me.

Fingers crossed... that bright orange light coming through is rough!

What year & model?

Easiest if you PM me your VIN, or at least last 7 digits.

That would be helpful information I suppose.

This is for my 2011 Cooper S (r56)

Bad news, I think. The only parts available, as far as I know are the *****, as you can see from the picture. Your best bet may be a junkyard or maybe someone parting out.

Alternatively, you could replace the entire Boost CD head, but it's pretty expensive. ($500+).

Sorry I don't have good news.

This seems to be all I could find as well. We are fortunate enough to have every single nut, washer and trim piece available to us on these cars.... just not the radio buttons.

I will have to look into a bashed up mini.
