Purpose and Function of the Rear Seat Belt Buckle

The buckle presented is an element installed in the rear interior of the vehicle, responsible for the mechanical fastening of the seat belt. A properly functioning buckle guarantees that the belt remains in the correct position during everyday use and in emergency situations.

The component has been designed specifically for BMW vehicles, ensuring factory fit for the rear seat structure and compatibility with the vehicle's original safety system.

Construction, Color, and Interior Integration

The rear seat belt buckle is made in a black color, allowing for seamless integration with the standard upholstery and interior finish of BMW 3 Series F models. The neutral color helps maintain a consistent aesthetic for the rear bench, without contrasts or visual disruptions.

The geometry of the element is adapted to factory mounting points, enabling precise placement in the original mounting location. This means the buckle requires no modifications or adaptations and maintains a stable position relative to the seat cushion and backrest after installation.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Buckle

Using a dedicated rear seat belt buckle for the BMW F30 allows for the full functionality of the safety system. Key benefits include:

• Compatibility with the factory seat belt system – maintaining correct cooperation with the belt retractor and buckle mechanism.
• Stable mounting in the rear of the vehicle – reducing play and unwanted movement of the component while driving.
• Visual consistency with the interior – black finish matched to typical BMW upholstery colors.
• Replication of original geometry – no need to modify mounting points or upholstery elements.

Item Condition and Service Application

The rear seat belt buckle is a used original BMW part, sourced from a dismantled vehicle. This type of component is particularly useful for:

• rectifying wear-and-tear faults, such as issues with buckle locking or release,
• restoring the completeness of the rear bench equipment after previous modifications or missing parts.

By retaining its original construction, the buckle allows for service in OEM standards, without compromising on fit or mechanism operation.
