Technical specifications and intended use

The presented trim panel is factory-fitted for the BMW 1 Series E88 model, i.e., the convertible version, and is designed for installation on the front right door. The precise shaping of the structure ensures a proper fit with the door metal, seals, and other interior trim elements, which minimizes the risk of rattles, looseness, or unwanted vibrations while driving.

The vehicle placement defined as front – right side allows for clear identification of the correct application of the part and helps avoid errors when selecting components. Thanks to this, the upholstery can be used both for standard replacement of a damaged panel and for interior restoration work.

Materials and Dakota Lemon finish

The upholstery belongs to the Door panels category and is crafted in an elegant Dakota Lemon leather finish, characteristic of BMW premium equipment packages. Dakota leather is a material designed for daily use – it combines a pleasant-to-the-touch texture with increased abrasion resistance and ease of cleaning.

The light Lemon shade visually brightens the interior, enhancing the feeling of cabin spaciousness. At the same time, the structure and color scheme are consistent with BMW factory standards, which allows for maintaining a uniform look of the entire door card and other interior elements in this color.

Functional purpose and benefits of installation

The door trim panel serves several key functions in the vehicle:

• covers the internal door structure and installations (window mechanism, electrical wiring),
• provides a mounting surface for handles, grips, and control buttons,
• influences acoustic comfort by reducing noise penetration from the outside,
• shapes the ergonomics of the driver and passenger area through the appropriate design of the armrest and handles.

Replacing worn or damaged upholstery with an original BMW part allows you to restore the factory look of the interior, improve daily comfort, and maintain the stylistic consistency of the cabin. This is particularly important for vehicles where maintaining the original manufacturer specification is a priority, e.g., for resale or restoration of collector's items.

Original origin and used condition

The item comes from BMW as an original part, which means full compliance with factory quality, dimension, and mounting standards. The used condition allows for an economical replacement while maintaining a high level of fit and functionality, especially compared to aftermarket replacements of uncertain origin.
