you know, the one behind iDrive rotor - that exposes your stuff to evil folks...
I saw a 3D printed US cover, over engineered, over priced and over there
and made my own out of some scrap wood - 1cm thick and 21cm long

13cm wide on top and 12 wide underneath to make snug chamfer fit into the console

stuck a piece of black rubber to help prevent the wood cover from tilting and sliding into the cubby

then I covered its upper surface with carbon fibre style black sticky vinyl
looks ok I think and stops prying eyes
