Cheap BMW i5 Glove Box

Yes, the BMW i5 (G60 generation, launched 2023) does have a glove box on the passenger side as standard across all variants. It is a conventional lockable glove compartment, so sourcing a used replacement from a breaker is a straightforward option.

The BMW i5 launched in the UK in 2023 and is currently a single generation (G60), so a glove box from a 2023 car should be compatible with a 2024 car within the same generation. That said, always confirm the exact part numbers with the breaker against your registration, as minor running changes can occur during a production run without a formal facelift.

The basic glove box unit is generally consistent across i5 trim levels (eDrive40 and M60, for example), though interior finish materials and illumination details can vary between trims. Visually the fit should be the same, but if you want the finish to match your interior exactly, let the breaker know your specific trim when requesting a quote.

The i5 (G60) shares its platform and body generation with the G60 5 Series (also launched 2023), and the interior architecture is very closely related, meaning the glove box may well interchange. However, there can be subtle differences in trim and finish between i5 and combustion-engine variants, so confirm compatibility with the breaker quoting against both registrations before purchasing.

Yes, this matters — on a right-hand-drive UK car the glove box sits on the nearside (NS, left side from the driver's perspective), and a left-hand-drive car mirrors this layout, so the units are not interchangeable. Always make sure the breaker is supplying a part from a right-hand-drive vehicle to match a UK-specification i5.

Give the breaker your full registration number, your trim level, and whether you need any specific finish (for example, whether your car has an illuminated or ventilated glove box), as these details can vary. Confirming the part number from your existing unit where possible will also help the breaker source an accurate match.
