Purpose and BMW Compatibility

The backrest is part of the Seats and Benches category, specifically designed for the right-hand side of the rear seat in the BMW E87 series. The structural frame, mounting points, and backrest geometry are fully compliant with the manufacturer's factory specifications, which facilitates installation and ensures the correct seat alignment and proper passenger positioning.

By maintaining the original form and dimensions, the backrest integrates seamlessly with standard interior components such as the seat base, seat belts, and door cards. This is particularly important for post-accident repairs or replacing worn-out parts, where precise fitment and stable mounting are essential.

Upholstery Material and Performance Characteristics

The backrest is finished in black leather upholstery, allowing for an aesthetic match with most BMW E87 interior configurations. Leather provides a pleasant tactile surface, easier maintenance, and a more premium appearance compared to textile materials.

Key features of this leather upholstery include:

• resistance to typical dirt encountered during daily use,
• compatibility with dedicated leather care products,
• a consistent, elegant look for the entire rear seating area.

The uniform black color facilitates integration with factory cockpit elements, headliners, and door panels, which is significant for comprehensive interior restoration.

Function in the Rear Interior

The right-side rear backrest is responsible for providing stable back support for the passenger and ensuring proper seat belt routing in that area. The correct geometry of the backrest influences seating ergonomics, load distribution during driving, and comfort on longer journeys.

Replacing a damaged or worn component with an original salvaged backrest allows you to:

• restore the functionality of the rear seat after bodywork repairs,
• reduce noticeable differences in firmness and shape between individual seating positions,
• maintain a consistent, factory-standard finish across the entire row of rear seats.

Characteristics of the Used Part

The backrest comes from a vehicle dismantling process, meaning it is a used item that remains suitable for further service. Such components are a popular choice for interior repairs because they allow you to maintain the original BMW specification at a lower cost compared to new parts.

Choosing a used rear seat backrest is particularly beneficial when you want to:

• preserve the original leather upholstery throughout the interior,
• limit repair costs while maintaining the standards of a premium brand,
• avoid visual discrepancies between new and older interior components.
