Does anyone know if a center console insert for 2021 X3 and older models will fit the 2022? If anyone has purchased one for their 2022 please share.

No. It's a completely different center console design for the trim and shifter assembly. Are you referring to the actual cubby or trim on the center console?

The cubby should be the same. I thought you were referring to the actual center console or trim on the center console. In which case the entire center console (short of the armrest and cubby) is completely different. Your question was slightly vague in my opinion.

For the LCI - do you know if the X4 side panels in vernasca with stitching on either side of the console are interchangeable with the X3 plastic ones? Always bugged me the X3 doesn't get these.

The piece looks slightly different. If you look at the curvature you can see it. I'm not sure it would fit. You could be the guinea pig if you want.

Will check what the prices are here then make a decision… Could you check part numbers for me please? Black with blue stitching (MANL).

I don't have the expertise to do that. Please consult your local parts department.
