Interior Changes in 2013?

Kantalias · 12-27-2013, 12:48 PM

We just got a 2013 128i for my wife and I want to get her a ProClip phone mount. But ProClip only indicates compatibility with 2008-2012. I contacted them and they said "at present we do not have any custom mounts for 2013".

The mount would fit over the air vents above the radio. We do not have iDrive or navigation. From what I can tell these vents and the trim around them have been the same since 2008 and there was absolutely no change in 2013.

Can anyone confirm (or link to a pic of the center dash area of a recent non-2013 model for comparison)?

Thanks!

Part number for the grill is 64227059189 and is unchanged from 2012 to 2013.

You can look at all of the part numbers for confirmation at realoem.com.

Here is my 2012 135i with the ProClip mount.

Shown with the Nexus mount. I also have a Samsung Note mount.

ProClip make awesome mounts. I have 4 of them and they are very well made.

I have one in my 2013 128i. Fits perfectly.

My ProClip items were back ordered and I just got them. The install was quick, clean, and perfect. Thank you -- everyone -- for the assurance that this would work.

I wrote to ProClip and encouraged them to indicate compatibility with 2013. Their customer support is still telling people the mounts for 2013 1 series are "not currently available". (?)

I noticed a picture with a tablet in one of these mounts. I bought one mount, not ProClip, for my Samsung 7 inch tablet and stopped using it because the tablet came out of it easily - while driving. Does the ProClip mount hold it securely?

My wife's 2013 and my 2009 are essentially identical in the interior. There are a few plastic exterior pieces that are different but the interior seems to be exactly the same.

Does anyone have a picture of a pro clip mounted to the console mount?
