Purpose and fitment

The backrest is designed for installation in the rear right section of the seat in the BMW 1 Series E81/E87 generation. The construction is compatible with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and helps maintain the original seat geometry. As a result, the component integrates well with other rear seat parts without the need for interior modifications.

Upholstery material and color

The upholstery is made of durable fabric, selected for its resistance to daily use and ease of cleaning. The applied Carneol Red Metallic - 544 shade gives the interior a distinctive yet balanced character, typical of the Cranberry Red/Cranberryrot color packages used by BMW. This combination allows for an aesthetic refresh of the cabin, especially in vehicles where the original backrest has suffered from abrasion or mechanical damage.

Function in the seat system

As an element of the Seats and benches category, the backrest plays a key role in the comfort of rear-seat passengers and provides stable back support while driving. The properly contoured structure works with the seat base to ensure a correct seating position and even load distribution. Keeping the original backrest in good condition also affects the aesthetics of the entire row of seats, which is important both for daily use and for the potential resale of the vehicle.

Condition and use in interior restoration

The item is in used condition, making it an attractive solution for comprehensive interior restoration or building a project car while maintaining original BMW components. Replacing only the rear right backrest allows for cost savings compared to purchasing a complete seat, while simultaneously restoring a consistent look to the rear of the cabin.

Integration with other interior elements

The backrest in Carneol Red Metallic - 544 blends well with factory BMW E81/E87 upholstery configurations that used contrasting or uniform color schemes. By maintaining the original fabric structure and characteristic color, the component harmoniously connects with door panels, seat bases, and other parts of the rear seat, without the "mismatched" effect often seen with parts from other models.
