Purpose and fitment

The backrest is designed for installation in the rear right part of the bench, ensuring a precise fit within the interior structure of the BMW E91. The factory mounting geometry and foam shape allow for correct seating of the component in the bench frame and ensure the proper passenger position while driving.

The item comes from the original BMW equipment line, which facilitates matching with existing upholstery and factory safety and comfort systems in the rear cabin area.

Material and finish

The backrest is made of black leather upholstery, providing the understated and functional interior look characteristic of BMW. The leather integrates well with factory door panels and other seats, creating a cohesive, orderly passenger cockpit.

The material structure facilitates easy maintenance – the leather surface is resistant to typical operational dirt, and regular care with appropriate products helps slow the aging process and maintain aesthetics for longer.

Function in the rear bench

The rear right backrest is responsible for stable back support for the passenger and proper load distribution on the bench structure. The correct backrest profile helps maintain a comfortable seating position, especially during long trips, while simultaneously working with factory seat belts.

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

• a consistent look of the rear bench,
• proper back support,
• comfort for passengers sitting on the rear right side.

Characteristics of the used component

The backrest comes from the secondary market, making it a cost-effective way to restore interior functionality without the need to invest in a new set of seats. A used component allows you to maintain the original character of the cabin while reducing the costs of repairing or upgrading the rear bench.

Application in interior upgrade projects

The leather rear bench backrest is suitable both for standard repairs after mechanical damage and for gradual interior upgrades from fabric to leather. It can be used in projects where the vehicle owner aims to achieve a more orderly, visually consistent rear cabin area while maintaining the factory BMW character.

Technical support and component selection
