Part Numbers on M Performance Rocker Blades

bk95 · 07-14-2021, 08:40 PM

Hi all,

I got a set of the MP Rocker Blades from IND:

https://ind-distribution.com/product...anel-blade-set

But upon recieving them I realized the part numbers don't match what I see on bmwusa (photo attached).

The ones I got from IND are part numbers 51772298301 and 51772298302. They have a BMW logo on them, so I assume they're OEM, however some googling on those numbers turns up some unusual websites, rather than the usual parts website suspects.

Anyone have any input? I reached out to IND but I would be interested in the forum consensus as well.

Thanks

I just bought these and can confirm the 286/287:

However, I believe RealOEM has not been updated since 12/2019, so it's possible that the original part #s were superseded by yours but RealOEM isn't showing them. I'd call a BMW dealer, give them one of the part #s, and see what they quote it as.

I called my local dealer and according to them one of the part numbers is "not valid", while the other one is something like a "rocker attachment", but has no price or any other fields in their database.

The parts have the BMW logo printed on them, so I'm going to assume it is legit, despite the confusion. IND was not much help, they just said, "We have checked it with BMW and they have confirmed it will fit without any issues." Which of course was not really my question, but I've purchased from IND before and I've never heard about them doing anything sketchy, so I'm going to install it.
