This element is particularly important when:
- comprehensive repair or restoration of the original headliner,
- replacing missing components after dismantling the interior,
- restoring a consistent, factory-like appearance to the rear of the cabin.
Design and fit for the BMW 7 Series
The mirror insert was designed as part of the BMW 7 Series' overhead console system, retaining the factory mounting points and contoured to the headliner. This allows for:
- precise fit with the rear headliner and other finishing elements,
- stable installation in the console without the need for modifications,
- maintaining the original styling of the BMW interior.
As a rearview and side mirror component, the vanity mirror insert not only affects passenger comfort but also the overall visual condition of the vehicle, which is important when reselling or restoring a premium car.
Technical condition and characteristics of the used item
The mirror insert offered comes from a disassembly and is being sold as a used part. This means it may show signs of normal wear and tear, but retains the functionality required for continued use in the vehicle.
Key features of the item used:
- original BMW origin, which translates into proper fit to the headliner structure,
- the functional function of the cosmetic mirror in the rear of the cabin has been retained,
- a reasonable compromise between cost and quality compared to new components.

For owners of high-end vehicles such as the BMW 7 Series, attention to interior detail – including complete rear-mounted mirrors – has a direct impact on passenger comfort and the perception of the quality of the entire car.
Compatibility and parts selection
