Range Rover Evoque L538 2011-2018 Centre Console Mounting Bracket BJ32-048B38-AA
The most important fitment check is the number moulded into your original bracket. Your existing component should show:
This number has been verified from the photographs of the actual item being sold — not simply copied from an item-specific field.
If there is any doubt, please send us your 17-character VIN through eBay Messages before buying, together with a clear photograph of your original bracket and its moulded number. We do not recommend ordering from registration year, engine size, appearance or a similar-looking bracket alone.
A matching model and year does not override a different part number.
| Vehicle family | Range Rover Evoque L538 |
| Listing year range | 2011-2018 — subject to exact number and VIN verification |
| Visible moulded number | BJ32-048B38-AA |
| Component | Centre console mounting / support bracket |
| Material | PC+ABS moulded engineering plastic |
| Location | Interior / centre-console and centre-tunnel mounting area |
| Condition | Used — please inspect all actual photographs |
| Electronic function | None directly — this is a structural mounting/support component |
| Superseded / alternate number | No manufacturer-confirmed supersession added — do not substitute a similar-looking number |
The bracket is installed behind/below the centre-console trim in the centre-tunnel console assembly. Once the interior is reassembled, the bracket is normally hidden from view.
Its job is structural rather than electronic. It helps locate and support the centre-console assembly and provides mounting points for associated trim/console components. It does not itself electronically operate the gearbox, infotainment, climate-control or Terrain Response systems.
This chart is intentionally conservative to reduce incorrect orders and returns.
| Vehicle | Years / Generation | Status | Required Check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Range Rover Evoque L538 | 2011-2018 | CONDITIONAL FIT | Original bracket must match BJ32-048B38-AA; VIN check recommended. |
| Evoque L538 5-door | Within L538 production scope | NUMBER + VIN CHECK | Do not assume from body style alone. |
| Evoque L538 Coupe / 3-door | Within L538 generation | NOT INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED | VIN and exact original bracket number required before ordering. |
| Evoque L538 Convertible | L538 derivative | NOT INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED | VIN and exact original bracket number required before ordering. |
| Range Rover Evoque L551 | 2019-on generation | NOT IN CONFIRMED SCOPE | Do not order from appearance or “Evoque” name alone. |
| Other Range Rover / Land Rover / Jaguar vehicles | Any | NO CROSS-FITMENT CLAIMED | Only purchase if VIN-based parts data confirms this exact component. |
Because no manufacturer-confirmed cross-platform application or supersession has been established for this exact moulded number. We would rather decline an uncertain sale than guess and send the wrong component.
- Centre console feels loose, moves or rocks when touched.
- Interior creaks, squeaks or rattles from the console/tunnel area.
- Console trim does not sit flush or panel gaps appear uneven.
- Fasteners will not hold securely because a mounting boss or bracket section has cracked.
- Console alignment has changed following interior repair, impact damage or previous dismantling.
- Trim repeatedly works loose after being refitted.
- A workshop has identified a fractured or missing support during console removal.
These symptoms can have other causes. Inspect the vehicle before replacing parts rather than treating any one symptom as a definitive diagnosis.
Where your original component carries the same identifier, a used factory component gives you the advantage of matching the original design, mounting geometry, clip locations and material specification rather than relying on the dimensions of an unverified pattern copy.
| Feature | This Factory-Marked Used Part | Unverified Pattern Copy |
|---|---|---|
| Identifier | BJ32-048B38-AA visibly moulded into the component | May use different or non-comparable identification |
| Material | PC+ABS marking visible | Varies by manufacturer |
| Mounting geometry | Original factory design when number matches | Fit quality cannot be assumed |
| Sustainability | Reuses an existing serviceable component | Requires manufacture of another component |
| Purchase cost | Can represent a substantial saving compared with purchasing new | Varies |
- Verify before dismantling: confirm BJ32-048B38-AA against the original component and VIN-based parts information.
- Park safely, switch the ignition off and protect surrounding leather, trim and painted console surfaces.
- Follow the vehicle-specific workshop procedure for electrical isolation if console electrical connectors need to be disconnected.
- Use plastic trim tools to remove the required centre-console side/top trim without marking visible surfaces.
- Disconnect only the connectors necessary for access, recording their positions before removal.
- Remove the appropriate console retaining fasteners and move/remove the console sufficiently to expose the bracket.
- Remove the damaged bracket and compare the old and replacement components side by side.
- Confirm moulded number, mounting bosses, threaded inserts, clips and overall geometry before installation.
- Transfer any reusable clips or fittings only where the workshop procedure specifies.
- Install the replacement into the original mounting points. Never force a bracket that does not align naturally.
- Tighten fasteners to the correct JLR workshop specification for the VIN — do not guess torque values.
- Reconnect all electrical connectors, refit the console and trim in reverse order.
- Check console alignment, movement, rattles and operation of all controls disturbed during the repair before returning the vehicle to service.
- Plastic interior trim-removal tool set
- Torx bit set
- Small ratchet and socket set
- Suitable extensions
- Small screwdriver / trim pick where required
- Magnetic parts tray
- Protective trim cloths or low-tack protection tape
- Inspection/work light
- Suitable torque wrench for final assembly where specified
Exact bit/socket sizes depend on the vehicle specification and should be confirmed during dismantling rather than assumed.
Planning allowance only: approximately 1.0-2.0 labour hours where console access and refitting are straightforward. This is not being presented as an official JLR book time. Previous repairs, broken trim clips, specification differences or damaged fixings can increase the job time.

1. Check BJ32-048B38-AA on your original part.
2. Compare the mounting points and overall shape with our actual photographs.
3. Confirm your vehicle is an L538 rather than relying on registration year alone.
4. If uncertain, send the 17-character VIN and a photograph through eBay Messages.

We provide detailed photographs, the visible component number and a conservative fitment chart to help buyers select the correct part first time. If you are unsure, please ask for a VIN check through eBay Messages before purchasing.
Returns are handled in accordance with the return terms shown on the eBay listing, applicable consumer rights and eBay policy.
If an item is returned used, altered, damaged, incomplete or otherwise in a different condition from that originally supplied, any deduction for loss in value will only be made where and to the extent permitted by eBay's current policy.
Fitment information does not remove a buyer's statutory or eBay rights, and no automatic percentage deduction is imposed solely because of the return reason selected.
Where applicable, this second-hand part is sold under the Global Accounting VAT margin scheme. VAT is accounted for under the scheme and is not shown separately on the sales invoice.
Automotive parts vary greatly in shape and fragility, so items are packed appropriately for their size, weight and material before dispatch. Tracking is used where supplied by the selected eBay postage service.

Every serviceable used component returned to the road gives an existing part another useful life. Reusing suitable automotive parts can reduce unnecessary disposal and reduce demand for manufacturing a completely new replacement where one is not required. 🌍
It can also provide a substantial financial saving compared with buying a new replacement, depending on the part and current new-part availability. Most importantly, matching the correct component number and VIN first time helps reduce unnecessary shipping, returns, packaging and wasted workshop time. 🔧📦
Thank you for choosing ThePartPilot and helping keep usable automotive components in service. 💚
