Overview

A modular upgrade for the BMW E36 switch panel area.

These modules replace the original blank switch covers and let you add modern functions without cutting the console or installing random universal parts. Choose from USB charging, volt meter, I/O switch, secondary horn button, USB passthrough, phone mount base, or blank covers.

Each module is designed to fit the factory switch panel location with an OEM style textured finish, keeping the interior clean while adding functions that actually make sense in a modern E36.
