Purpose and fitment for BMW X3 F25

The presented armrest is designed for installation in the rear cabin of the BMW X3 F25 model. The construction, based on the original BMW design, guarantees a proper fit with the seat backrest and correct operation of the folding mechanism. As a result, this component can be used both for standard replacement and during more advanced interior restoration.

Material and color – Nevada red leather

The surface finish is made of genuine Nevada leather in red, characteristic of sport-configured BMW interiors. This type of upholstery provides:

• visual consistency with factory seats and bench,
• a pleasant-to-touch, durable surface,
• easier maintenance compared to textile materials.

The red shade emphasizes the dynamic character of the cabin, and the leather structure blends well with other premium finish elements.

Function and ergonomics of the rear armrest

The armrest mounted in the center of the rear seat improves the ergonomics of travel for rear passengers, providing stable forearm support during the ride. This element also contributes to:

• a more comfortable seating position on longer journeys,
• better visual organization of the rear cabin area,
• maintaining the original character of the BMW X3 F25 interior.

For vehicle owners whose factory armrest is worn or damaged, replacing it with an original leather component allows for restoring functionality without the need to modify the backrest structure.

Condition of the component and use in interior restoration

The offered armrest is a used part, which makes it an attractive solution for restoration projects where preserving original BMW components is important. A used element often allows for a better visual match to the remaining upholstery than a new part, minimizing differences in shade and wear. It is a practical choice when refreshing the cabin, preparing the car for sale, or restoring consistency after localized damage.

Integration with other BMW seat components
