Purpose and Fitment for MINI R50/R53

The driver’s dashboard shelf rubber insert has been developed for BMW MINI Cooper One R50 and R53 models, where it serves as the factory insert in the upper part of the cockpit. Its shape and profile are adapted to the original shelf, allowing for:

• allows for quick cleaning – simply wipe with a damp cloth,
• provides a stable base for accessories such as keys or cards.

This is a practical solution for drivers who want to maintain order on the dashboard while also caring for the cockpit’s aesthetics.
