• correct belt guidance relative to the seat and body,
• compatibility with the factory BMW safety system,
• maintaining predictable vehicle behavior in terms of rear seat passenger protection.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Belt

Using an original rear upper seat belt for the BMW F46 LCI allows you to maintain the parameters intended by the vehicle manufacturer. In practice, this means:

• precise fit to the body – no need for modifications to mountings or tape routing,
• compatibility with factory interior elements (pillars, upholstery, rear bench seat),
• integration with passive safety systems used in the specific model.

This solution is particularly recommended for professional post-accident repairs, restorations, and returning the car to its manufacturer-specified condition.

Item Condition and Practical Application

The seat belt comes from a used vehicle, making it an attractive cost-effective alternative to a new OEM component while retaining its original construction. This type of part is often chosen by workshops specializing in the BMW brand and by users who expect:

• original manufacturing quality characteristic of BMW,
• maintenance of factory safety standards on the rear bench seat,
• optimal price-to-functionality ratio compared to new parts.

Before installation, a standard check of the retractor mechanism's proper operation is recommended, along with correct tightening of all mounting points according to BMW service procedures.

Application in Service and Post-Accident Repairs

The rear upper seat belt for the BMW F46 LCI is particularly suitable for the following service situations:

• post-collision repairs where rear belts have deployed or been damaged,
• restoring interior completeness after removing upholstery or seat elements,
• professional vehicle restorations while preserving original BMW structural solutions.

Selecting an original seat belt is crucial for maintaining compliance with the manufacturer's technical documentation and for the correct operation of the entire passenger safety system.
