Anyone know where to order (online) a new cup holder. My front one is missing the clip!

Bavauto.com might have them.

Yep, took us a while but we found it. They were on realm.com shown in the diagram for $39. then on bmwunited and 10 other sites for like 70 and 80. Bavauto.com had it for 32 plus 15 for shipping. $48 total. That's a win. Thanks!

I just needed the mount / holder it's self I think it was around 30 euro at my local dealer. Your in the ball park and. Bav auto is the quickest shipper.

Yeah i just needed the actual holder too. My little clip broke off so my stuff just kinda shakes around (and spills from time to time). I actually almost bough everything because i couldn't figure out how to get off until my buddy showed. Just kinda pulls off straight up. I felt dumb but he saved me some cash!

I maybe a bit late on this response but for OEM parts I have found buying from your local dealer is usually cheaper. Once you knock off the 19% with the VAT form and not having to deal with shipping costs the local dealership is usually the way to go. And if you are lucky the dealership might give you a bit of a discount if you order a lot of bigger parts like exhaust, suspension pieces etc.
