Purpose and function of the component

The described cover is dedicated to the rear part of the centre console armrest in the BMW 1 Series E87, mounted in the rear seat area. Its purpose is to cover the armrest structure from the perspective of rear passengers, which improves aesthetics and protects internal components from accidental damage and dirt. Thanks to its precise profile, the part maintains the line of the original BMW interior design without the need for modifications.

Color and visual fitment

The beige shade of the cover has been selected for use in light interior configurations of the 1 Series E87. This color allows you to:

• maintain visual consistency with seat upholstery and door panels,
• reduce the visibility of minor scratches typical of daily use,
• achieve a neutral, orderly look for the rear part of the console.

The element works well both when replacing a damaged cover and during partial interior restoration, when you want to maintain the original character of the cabin.

Original origin and technical parameters

The BMW 1 Series E87 Centre Console Armrest Arm Rest Beige Rear Trim Cover comes from the original BMW line, which means it maintains factory manufacturing standards and compatibility with the mounts in the E87 model. As an element from the Dashboards group, it is designed to work with other cockpit and center tunnel panels, ensuring stable mounting and proper edge alignment.

The part is used, which in practice means a real fit for the vehicle and the possibility of installation as a replacement for the factory element, without the need to modify the console structure. This is a particularly beneficial solution for accident repairs or replacing worn interior panels.

Installation and service application

The cover has been designed for the standard mounting points in the rear part of the BMW 1 Series E87 centre console. In practice, this facilitates workshop work or DIY installation because it:

• does not require additional brackets or adapters,
• allows for quick restoration of the armrest's completeness,
• ensures repeatable, factory-standard fitment with adjacent tunnel elements.

For workshops specializing in the BMW brand, the use of original interior panels is important from the point of view of repair quality, as well as the user's subsequent satisfaction with the appearance of the cabin.
