Which option includes the upper leather door panel?

Initially, it appeared to be included with the Individual leather dash, and used to show in the Belgian configurator when I selected that option. Now, however, it does not.

Below are pictures from the configurator both without (as it behaves now) and with (that I had saved from before) the leather on the upper part of the door.

Does anyone know how to order this? And, does anyone have real life pictures of it?

Likely a glitch with the configurator (happens often). I would just check with your dealer if you're worried, but I would assume the Individual dash brings leather stitched door tops as it does with other models.

It doesn't, at least in EU. I ordered leather dash and I got upper and lower part of the dash in leather (and it's fantastic, BTW.) but doors are the same as the other models, as you can see in this pic.

Hmm, pity. I especially selected the individual leather dash as I thought it would also get the leather and stitches on the upper door panels. Dropped sensatec dash as I knew it wouldn’t have them.

Yes, it's the shame. Especially because leather dash looks and feels great. I also took it based on configurator image, but I knew there is a possibility of not getting it on top of the doors because it wasn't mentioned anywhere in the description of leather dash option.

But don't be sad, Sensatec looks much less premium than leather dash. And by "much", I really mean "much". This lifts up the interior by some margin...

True, it’s not mentioned in the description. Probably you only get it in combination with Individual merino leather seats.

Contacted my local dealer and he told me that the individual leather dashboard (4M5 option) would indeed come with the upper door panels in leather walknappa and stitching. However, tis is not what the real live picture above is showing us ... Lets wait and see.

Pics of an M340i with upper leather door panel :







I find it strange that there isn't any leather on the sides of the center console. That part looks cheap with all that plastic.

This is the individual Fiona Red merino leather with extended leather. Even the individual leather option comes in two flavours. One without extended leather, other with (doors, backseat of front seats, ...)

Probably I need to go for a retrofit if I really want the top door panels in leather as well like the dashboard

Does anyone know whether the Individual interiors will be available only on the M340, or do you think they'll be available on lesser models like the 330 as well?
