Purpose and vehicle fitment

The backrest is designed as a rear seat component mounted on the right side, making it compatible with the factory seat layout in post-facelift R-series Minis. Its placement in the rear seat area ensures compatibility with original mounts, rails, and the folding system, facilitating installation in place of a worn or damaged part.

As a part from the Seats and benches group, the backrest works with the standard seat structure, maintaining the ergonomics and functionality intended by the manufacturer. This solution is particularly beneficial for replacing a single seat segment without the need to purchase a complete seat set.

Upholstery material and Polar Beige color

The upholstery is made of genuine leather, which translates to a pleasant-to-touch surface and easier cleaning compared to textile materials. The leather structure works well with the factory interior finish of the Mini, ensuring a consistent look with other cabin elements.

The Polar Beige shade is characteristic of light Mini interior configurations, making this backrest an appropriate choice when replacing a single module in cars with light-colored upholstery. The light color visually enlarges the rear cabin space and improves the aesthetic impression, especially in daily-driven vehicles.

Functional characteristics and application

The right-side rear seat backrest plays a key role in daily vehicle operation – it is responsible for passenger comfort, stable back support, and proper interaction with seat belts and the seat cushion. Replacement of this component is recommended in the event of:

• mechanical damage to the backrest (cracks, structural deformations),
• significant wear or abrasion of the leather in the rear seat area,
• local interior restoration after a collision or bodywork repairs,
• cabin modernization using branded parts from dismantling.

Due to its leather finish, the backrest performs well in cars used for longer trips, where stable support and ease of cleaning are essential for user comfort.

Condition, origin, and installation aspects

The item comes from the Mini range and is a used part, which allows for maintaining factory geometry and compatibility with original mounting points. As a result, the installation can be carried out in a manner similar to the factory process, without the need to modify the rear seat structure.

When selecting a backrest, it is worth paying attention to the body version and interior configuration compatibility to maintain a uniform leather shade and stitching structure. The product is particularly attractive to users who prefer OEM solutions and want to keep the interior to the manufacturer's standard.
