Mystery part identification


Hello all, newcomer here so please forgive if there's a better place to post this.

I have a 2010 Cooper S and I've been having some issues with the trunk cover. There are these rubber wedge-shaped parts that have fallen out from the interior of boot (see photos) that I think are supposed to hold up the cargo cover. Since they fell out, my cargo cover has broken one of the pins and in general just doesn't sit well in the car. I know this will only get worse if I leave it alone.

I've found a replacement part for the cover pin, but I lost one of the little wedge-shaped pieces and I can't seem to find a parts diagram that lists them.

Also, has anyone else had this happen to them? The insert portion of the part is quite stiff and I can't seem to force it back into place in the door.

There's an illustrated parts list available --- http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/select --- not too difficult to use either.
All you need to get in is the last seven or eight characters of your VIN. Anyone doing their own maintenance needs to know how to use this site.

http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=51_6143 part number 3, the bump stop fell out in my car and I just forced it back in best I could.

RealOEM can be tricky to navigate but just look around for a while and you'll eventually get a feeling for which category your mystery part may be in.

Try using this website: https://www.etkbmw.com/

You input your VIN. I find it a lot easier to navigate than realoem.
