Purpose and compatibility with BMW E87

The presented headrest has been designed specifically for BMW 1 Series E87 models, intended for installation in the rear of the vehicle on either the left or right side. Thanks to a design compliant with factory BMW standards, proper positioning relative to the backrest is maintained, which translates into stable head support for passengers and improved comfort during long journeys.

Material and finish

The headrest upholstery is made of cloth and imitation leather, allowing for a harmonious match with standard BMW E87 interiors. The black color scheme reduces the visibility of typical signs of wear and makes it easy to keep the item clean using standard upholstery care products. The surface provides a pleasant, thermally neutral contact and blends well with other cabin trim elements.

Function, ergonomics, and safety

The headrest from the Headrests category plays an important role in terms of ergonomics and protection for rear-seat passengers. The appropriately selected shape and height adjustment capability (in accordance with the factory seat design) allow for:

• achieving stable head and neck support,
• reducing strain on the cervical spine during sudden braking,
• increasing seating comfort during highway driving.

The component was developed as part of the BMW seating system, which is why it works with the factory guides and adjustment mechanisms used in the rear seat.

Characteristics of the used product

The offered headrest is a used item, which means it may show standard signs of wear typical for original parts removed from vehicles. At the same time, its structural functionality is preserved, allowing for further trouble-free use in daily driving. For many BMW users, this is a cost-effective solution that allows for maintaining material and color consistency of the interior at a reasonable replacement cost.

Interior integration and service applications

By installing this headrest in a BMW E87, you can easily replace a missing rear seat component or substitute an excessively worn one. The black finish blends well with both classic and more elaborate interior configurations, maintaining a consistent, factory look. This solution is suitable for:

• post-accident repairs of the rear cabin area,
• interior renovation after intensive use,
• restoring the completeness of equipment before selling the vehicle.
