Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 Series E90/E91

The presented backrest is dedicated to the rear seat of the BMW 3 Series E90/E91 generation and can be installed on both the left and right sides. The structure is designed for factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and allows for maintaining proper seat geometry. The component is consistent with the original interior design line, ensuring that there are no differences in shape or proportions compared to the rest of the seat after replacement.

Lemon leather upholstery – material characteristics

The backrest is made of leather upholstery in the Lemon shade, characteristic of selected BMW 3 Series equipment configurations. The leather provides a pleasant-to-touch surface that is easy to keep clean using standard upholstery care products. The use of original material allows for maintaining color and texture consistency with other interior elements, which is crucial when performing partial upholstery replacement.

Backrest and headrest function in the rear seat

The backrest integrated with the headrest is responsible for stable support of the back and head of rear-seat passengers. A properly selected component:

• maintains the correct seating position while driving,
• works with factory safety systems,
• ensures appropriate rigidity of the rear seat structure.

Thanks to the preservation of the original geometry of the backrest and headrest, there is no need for interference with other seat elements after installation, which limits the time and scope of upholstery work.

Component condition and service application

The backrest comes from disassembly and is intended for reinstallation in a vehicle where it is necessary to replace a damaged or worn rear seat component. This type of part is suitable for both post-accident repairs and interior refreshing, where the priority is preserving original BMW components rather than using aftermarket upholstery replacements.

Integration with other BMW seat elements

The backrest works with factory seat cushions, mounts, and seat belts provided for the rear seat in the BMW 3 Series E90/E91. With proper installation, the functionality of folding the backrest (if present in the vehicle configuration) and correct seat belt routing are maintained. In the case of extensive interior work, it is worth considering the condition of other seat elements to achieve a uniform visual and functional effect.
