A bit if a longshot I guess but been after these for quite sometime. If anyone has them and doesn't use them and interested in a part ex for a bit of cash then let me know.
Of course if you know anyone breaking an X with them again please let me know.
Need to be from an X with rear door airbags fitted.
Thanks,
Raj.

Hey buddy,
Fitted rear door roller blinds a few months ago to my X5 . Like you had been looking for a very long time and got lucky on ebay, they very rarely come up for sale and when they do the door cards must have the right spec as yours (with or without rear airbags, with or without rear speaker mids and of course same colour leather trim).
If you do manage to find some you can save yourself ££££ on the plastic door trim the blind hooks fit to .
Item 8 part numbers 51 34 8 265 987 , 51 34 8 265 988.

To fit the hooks to your existing trim gently pull down the plastic trim and you'll find the holes in the door frame covered with clear round sticky tape , line up and drill a hole in the plastic trim using a small drill bit then carefully cutaway the rest using a sharp blade. Also the plastic trim piece that divides the 1/4 glass is no longer needed cut away at the top using a sharp blade .
At £120 per side it's worth taking the time to make them work . Will let you know if i come across any.
Good luck with your search.

Cheers for the response buddy.
Tbh I had been offered a full set from a mate who breaks X5's so came with doorcards, window surround, clips, everything needed but unfortunately the donor X didn't have rear door airbags GUTTED so someone off here is taking them (lucky boy).
Not fussed about the leather as can swap mine over tbh.
