Intended Use and Fitment for BMW E90

The presented headrest is specifically designed for the rear center seat in the BMW 3 Series E90 model. Its placement in the rear of the vehicle provides stable support for the passenger in the middle seat, improving safety and seating ergonomics during driving.

Thanks to its factory OEM construction, proper proportions, mounting geometry, and shape tailored to the seatback are maintained, which facilitates installation and allows for an aesthetically pleasing integration with the original upholstery.

Sattel Braun Material and Color

The headrest is made of natural leather in Sattel Braun color, characteristic of many BMW E90 interior configurations. This material choice allows for:

• maintaining a consistent look of the rear seat,
• easier matching with existing upholstery,
• preserving the distinctive, elegant style of the BMW interior.

The leather surface is resistant to typical operational wear and tear, while providing a pleasant, comfortable touch for the passenger.

Function and Benefits of Installation

Installing the rear center headrest in a BMW E90 is important not only for aesthetics but also for functionality. This component:

• provides additional head support for the passenger sitting in the middle,
• reduces neck fatigue on longer journeys,
• helps maintain proper body posture in case of sudden braking.

For owners whose headrest has been removed or damaged, this is a functional addition to the rear seat equipment, restoring full usability to the center seat.

Characteristics of a Used Part

As a used part, the headrest comes from the disassembly of an original BMW interior. This means the factory shape, correct foam profile, and compatibility with standard guides and mountings in the seatback are preserved. This type of component is a good choice for repairs where compliance with factory equipment and reasonable interior restoration costs are important.
