Solar Sensor - part number needed

Hi guys!

I lost and need a replacement cover for the solar sensor located on the dash of a 2013 R56.

Does anyone happen to know then part number I need? Or can pop the one off their R56 to check for a part number / photo?

I ordered part number 51452752896 assuming it was correct but it doesn’t fit.

I’ve included a photo of the incorrect part that arrived and also the sensor housing itself it it helps.

Thankyou!

Looks like you need the whole sensor, not just the cover:

The part that you bought is just the blank plug for cars without the sensor.

Ordered the whole sensor, just used the top cap that I lost in the end.

Fairly easy to do, just frustrating losing the part in the first place!
