Purpose and fitment for BMW E90 LCI / E91

The presented item is designed as a rear middle armrest for BMW 3 Series E90 LCI and E91 generation models, mounted in the rear part of the cabin. The construction based on factory BMW solutions guarantees proper fitment with the rear seat backrest and compatibility with the standard upholstery of these models. As a result, a consistent stylistic line of the interior is maintained after installation, without the need for modifications or adjustments to the mounts.

Material and finish – grey Dakota leather

The armrest is made of Dakota leather upholstery in a grey shade, which allows for an aesthetic match to factory BMW interior color configurations. The leather surface provides a pleasant-to-touch, durable material that withstands daily use well. The grey color helps maintain a subdued, elegant character of the cabin while making it easier to visually blend with other elements of the rear seat upholstery.

Function in the rear interior

Its placement on the rear seat means the armrest serves several important functional and ergonomic purposes:

• provides additional support for the arms of passengers sitting in the back, improving comfort on longer journeys,
• stabilizes the seating position, which promotes comfort and reduces fatigue,
• organizes the rear seat space, clearly defining the zone for two people when the armrest is folded down.

Thanks to the factory design, the element folds harmoniously into the backrest, without disturbing the functionality of the rear seat when not in use.

Characteristics of the used part

The armrest comes from disassembly, which means it is an original used BMW part. Such components are frequently chosen for interior repairs and renovations because they allow for maintaining consistency in materials, textures, and shades with other cabin elements. In the case of replacing a damaged or heavily worn rear armrest, using an original used part is often the most rational solution from both a technical and economic perspective.

Why choose an original leather armrest

Choosing an original rear armrest for the BMW E90 LCI / E91 brings several significant benefits:

• preservation of factory build quality and fitment to the backrest structure,
• color and material consistency with other interior elements,
• no need for modifications to mounts or the rear seat backrest structure,
• the ability to restore the aesthetic appearance of the rear cabin after damage or wear of the previous element.

For users who care about the condition of the interior and the vehicle's value in the long term, using original upholstery components is a solution that helps maintain a consistent, well-kept appearance of the car.
