BMW 1 Series 2011 Convert, rear near side wheel arch trim

Hi

I have found that the trim is loose, and has no fixings in the points 11 & 13 detailed below..........just blank holes fixed to fresh air behind 😞

I am struggling to locate a diagram that details how/where points 11 & 13 fix too........if at all??

The other side is absolutely solid 😞

Please can someone advise.

Many thanks

    Hi All

    I spoke to the local authorized BMW Colchester dealer, and advised car reg number + full details of the issue.

    I was amazed at the lack of assistance/knowledge 😬

    I explained that I was attempting to trace the actual part/s that the push fit rivets (No 11 & 13) attached too. I explained that my car has 'fresh air' behind the No 2 wheel arch, only open mounting holes.

    All I got was "you have to know what you are after" (and was presented with the same drawing as above).............my reply "that's the problem, whatever was supposed to be there is missing......how am I supposed to know what was there in the first place.......if at all"

    Does anyone have a BMW Series 1 E88 Convertible 2011, who can assist in resolving the mystery............a photo would be a life saver 😁
