Intended Use and Compatibility with BMW

The backrest cover has been specifically designed for the BMW 1 Series E87 LCI (facelift) in the Sport version, ensuring proper profiling and compatibility with the original seat geometry. This part is intended for installation on the front right-hand seat, allowing for precise restoration of the original appearance and ergonomics of the passenger area without the need for structural modifications.

Construction and Upholstery Material

This backrest belongs to the Seats and Benches category and is a standalone upholstery cover that works with the standard foam and seat frame. The fabric upholstery used offers good resistance to daily wear and tear, while also maintaining thermal comfort – the material does not heat up like leather and is pleasant to use in both summer and winter.

The fabric structure promotes stable back support in the seat, which is particularly important in sport-oriented versions. The appropriate stitching and panel divisions facilitate correct tensioning of the cover over the backrest, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing, uniform appearance after installation.

Service Application and Benefits of Installation

The Sport version seat backrest cover is suitable for repairing localized damage as well as refreshing the interior after intensive use. Replacing only the cover allows you to:

• restore the cohesive appearance of the seat without needing to purchase a complete seat base,
• maintain the original character of BMW's finish,
• limit repair costs compared to new parts from an authorized dealer,
• maintain proper ergonomics and back support.

A used OEM part is a good choice when aiming to maintain the factory finish standard within a reasonable budget. The original geometry and mounting method facilitate installation by an upholsterer or an interior restoration workshop.

Condition, Origin, and Technical Aspects

The backrest is a used part sourced from a dismantled BMW, which is important when planning a repair using second-hand parts. As an original BMW part, the cover complies with the manufacturer's factory quality standards, and its construction has been developed for direct integration with the standard seat frame and foam.

The product has an assigned OEM part number and corresponding replacement numbers, which simplifies compatibility verification with a specific seat configuration in a given vehicle. If in doubt before installation, it is advisable to compare the shape, mounting point layout, and contours with the currently installed backrest.
