Purpose and fitment for BMW E90 LCI

The presented backrest is designed specifically for the rear bench of the BMW 3 Series E90 generation after the facelift (LCI), intended for the right side of the vehicle. Thanks to the factory-spec construction geometry, the correct mounting points, backrest split line, and compatibility with standard interior equipment such as the seat base, seat belts, and side bolsters are preserved.

This component is suitable both for replacing a damaged backrest and for completing an interior after modifications or retrofitting with solutions that allow for the transport of longer items, such as ski equipment.

Upholstery material and color

The backrest is made of leather upholstery in a brown shade, which allows for a cohesive, elegant cabin look. Leather provides a pleasant-to-the-touch surface, easier maintenance, and higher resistance to daily wear compared to fabric. The brown color scheme blends well with both light and dark interior trim elements, creating a subdued, classic interior typical of a premium mid-size BMW.

For those planning subtle interior tuning, the leather rear seat backrest serves as a solid base for further modifications, such as replacing other upholstery elements or installing additional styling accents.

Functionality of the rear backrest with ski bag insert

A significant feature of this backrest is the design intended for a ski bag insert. This solution allows for the transport of longer items, such as skis or snowboards, while maintaining the ability to use the rear seats. Thanks to the appropriately shaped center section of the backrest, equipment transport is carried out in a more organized and upholstery-safe manner.

Such a backrest is particularly useful for drivers who regularly use their car in winter conditions or need practical access to the luggage compartment without having to fold the entire rear bench.

Application in the Seats and benches category

The backrest belongs to the Seats and benches category, responsible for travel comfort and interior aesthetics. Replacing the backrest alone is often the most effective solution for localized upholstery or structural damage, without the need to interfere with the entire seat. This allows for optimized repair costs while maintaining the original character of the BMW cabin.

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the rear seat area in your BMW and need other elements from the same group, such as backrests, seat bases, or headrests, check out the available parts in the BMW Seats and benches category.

Used condition and benefits of choosing OEM parts

The backrest comes from the secondary market, which allows for combining an attractive purchase price with the preservation of factory fitment for a specific BMW model. The original OEM construction ensures proper geometry, compatibility with standard mounts, and visual consistency with other interior elements. For many users, this is a reasonable compromise between quality and budget, especially for post-accident repairs or the restoration of older vehicles.
