Purpose and fitment for the BMW 1 Series

The presented backrest is a component from the Seats and benches group, dedicated to the rear seat on the passenger side in compact BMW E81 and E87 facelift (LCI) models. Its placement in the rear part of the interior on the passenger side ensures a proper fit to the body structure, mounting points, and seat geometry characteristic of this BMW generation.

Its original BMW origin means that factory shapes, seam lines, and compatibility with stock mounts are preserved, which facilitates installation and helps avoid fitment issues typical of universal replacements.

Material finish and Elektra Grey color scheme

The backrest is made with fabric upholstery in grey (Elektra Grey), characteristic of facelifted BMW 1 Series interiors. The fabric is selected for its resistance to daily wear, and the neutral grey shade blends well with both dark and light cockpit elements.

Thanks to the preservation of the original color and material texture, this element is particularly suitable for situations where it is necessary to replace a single backrest due to collision, wear, or localized damage, without the need to interfere with the rest of the rear bench seat.

Characteristics of the used component

The backrest comes from dismantling, which allows for maintaining the factory BMW specification while reducing interior repair costs. As a used part, it is a suitable choice for an economical cabin renovation, matched to the actual age of the vehicle, without the need to invest in a complete new set of seats.

Choosing an original, used rear backrest allows you to maintain the stylistic and structural consistency of the interior, while simultaneously reducing waste by reusing high-value components.

Application in repairs and interior upgrades

The right rear backrest in Elektra Grey upholstery is particularly useful for:

• local replacement of a damaged rear passenger-side backrest,
• restoring the factory look of the interior after accident repairs,
• economical improvement of cabin aesthetics in vehicles with a heavily worn rear bench.

This element can also be used in interior refreshment projects where the priority is to maintain the original BMW E81/E87 LCI specification without introducing non-factory modifications.
