Purpose and compatibility

The presented headrest is designed for the rear passenger cabin of BMW F20 and F30 series models. The design allows for installation on both the right and left sides of the rear bench, making it easy to fit to your specific seat configuration. Thanks to its factory origin from the BMW range, the correct mounting points and geometry are maintained, ensuring proper head support for passengers.

Construction, material, and color

The headrest is made of durable fabric upholstery, selected for its resistance to daily wear and ease of cleaning. The black color of the cover allows for seamless integration with most factory interior configurations, while the red stitching emphasizes the dynamic, sporty character typical of BMW styling packages. The fabric used ensures shape retention and comfort when in contact with the headrest surface during travel.

Safety and comfort function

A properly selected rear seat headrest is important for passenger ergonomics and safety. This component stabilizes the head position, reducing the risk of cervical spine injuries during sudden maneuvers or emergency braking. At the same time, the soft fabric structure and tailored profile contribute to travel comfort, especially on longer journeys. The original headrest geometry promotes proper positioning relative to the back and neck, which improves the overall feeling of comfort on the rear bench.

Application in restoration and interior retrofitting

This headrest is suitable both for replacing a worn or damaged element and for supplementing missing rear bench equipment. It can be used in restoration projects where maintaining consistent upholstery and original BMW styling is important. The contrasting red thread allows you to recreate the characteristic look of sport-trimmed versions without the need to modify other seat components.
