Reeoutdoor Front AC Vent Compatible with BMW 5 Series 520 523 525 528 530 535 550, Dashboard Center Air Conditioning Grilles for BMW F10 F18 (2010-2016)

I have to say for what it cost it is definitely not a bad choice. Been working on cars for ever cant even remember how longs its been. The difference in buying factory replacement verses aftermarket is how things fit, how precise all the holes line up. Luckily this part was flexible enough that I was able to get all the screws in and still looked decent. It did not look to distorted after install. Price for factory replace is 4-5 times more so for a 13 year old car this part was very reasonable..

This is superior to the factory original. It is easy to instal if you follow the U-tube videos. getting the little clips off of the back and then aligning the movable vent while pressing together are the toughest part. But if you take your time is really is easy. comes with the plastic tool needed to remove the long panel and the screwdriver needed to seperate the parts. their are realy are no instructions with this item...go to u-tube...great easy to follow video. If you are the least bit mechanically inclined and are patient, this is an easy swap...took me about 30-40 mins

Would’ve given a 5-star review had the vent clip handling been easier. Otherwise it was a breeze - there was however a flimsy thin piece /tab that either broke during transit or broken during handling (by user).Product was nice and dropped in perfectly. No more unsightly broken vent.

you do have to remove the whole wood like fascia to install, but a simple YouTube video explained how. it looks fantastic. I can't believe I bought something that worked for my BMW that was so inexpensive

It is an OK item but not the same as the OEM one. It will give you 90% of the look and feel for a fraction of the price. The biggest problem is that there is a small gap in the upper side once you install the vents.Long term quality needs to be determined
