All the switchgear is BMW or at least BMW sourced.
I would know, they look exactly the same as in my X1.

Im pretty sure when he's talking about what is shared, its all the pieces that are interchangeable with the Z4. There appears to be a lot of items that are changed just enough that they are not straight up the same between the two.
