Clock Adjuster Fix for BMW E46 3-Series M3 Instrument Cluster
This product is a fixture that provide your clock adjusting function will work again in your lovely BMW E46's cluster. Original development, bad copies can be harder to use and easier to break!
Durable raw material is ASA, which is more resistant to UV, heat and cold than PETG and ABS. The bottom part of the ring is thicker for the purpose of strengthening the structure.
