Purpose and BMW compatibility

This rear seat bench is specifically designed for installation in the rear of the facelifted (LCI) BMW 3 Series E90/E91 generation. The seat construction is adapted to the factory interior geometry, ensuring proper support for passengers' backs and thighs, as well as a correct fit with the side panels and center tunnel.

As an original BMW component, the rear seat is compatible with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and allows for maintaining the integrity of the interior structure without the need for modifications to the upholstery or frame.

Material and characteristics of black Dakota leather

The upholstery is made of black Dakota leather, used as standard in many BMW trim levels. This type of leather is characterized by a distinct texture, good resistance to daily wear, and ease of cleaning. The dark color scheme helps maintain an aesthetic interior appearance even with intensive use.

The leather surface of the rear seat provides a pleasant-to-the-touch, stable contact with the upholstery, while also working well with factory safety systems, such as seat belts or child seat mounts (if provided in the specific vehicle).

Function, ergonomics, and passenger comfort

The rear seat has been designed for daily use in both urban and highway conditions. The profiling of the seat and backrest promotes a stable passenger position, and the carefully selected firmness of the padding supports comfort on longer journeys. The use of Dakota leather limits clothing from sliding on the upholstery, which improves the subjective sense of safety and comfort.

This element is also an important visual component – replacing a worn or damaged rear seat with this model allows for restoring a cohesive, orderly cabin look, which is significant both for utility and potential vehicle resale.

Condition, origin, and installation aspects

The seat bench comes from a dismantled BMW vehicle and is offered as a used part, which allows for a favorable cost-to-quality ratio while maintaining the original character of the interior. The frame construction and the arrangement of mounts are consistent with the manufacturer's factory solutions.

During installation, it is recommended to verify compatibility with the specific body version and interior configuration, as well as to check the condition of the mounting elements in the vehicle. A properly selected rear seat in black Dakota leather allows for seamless integration with other seats and upholstery, without differences in texture or shade characteristic of other materials.
