Purpose and fitment for BMW E87

The presented rear seat has been designed specifically for installation in the rear body section of the BMW 1 Series E87, ensuring it maintains the factory lines, proportions, and interior ergonomics. The seat and backrest construction is adapted to the floor geometry and mounting points of this model, which facilitates installation and allows for the preservation of the original functionality of the rear passenger space.

Its original BMW origin means proper fitment with door panels, the center tunnel, and seat belts, without the need for modifications or adaptations. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, interior restoration, or returning the car to a factory-like condition.

Upholstery material and Alaskagrau Grey color

The rear seat is finished with fabric upholstery, which ensures breathability, stable body support, and easier maintenance in daily use compared to more slippery materials. The material structure promotes comfort during long trips while effectively withstanding typical wear and tear in a compact car.

The Alaskagrau Grey color is a universal, neutral shade that harmonizes with most factory interior configurations of the BMW E87. This color visually organizes the space, effectively masks minor dirt, and allows for seamless combination with other upholstery elements and plastics in various shades of grey and black.

Functional characteristics of the rear seat

The rear seat for the BMW E87 has been designed with daily city and highway driving in mind. The profile of the seat and backrest provides stable support for passengers, and the carefully selected filling density promotes comfort during longer journeys. The construction is adapted to work with factory safety systems, such as seat belts and child seat mounts, in accordance with the solutions used in this model.

The used nature of the item makes it a sensible choice for budget-friendly interior restoration, replacement after material wear, or vehicle reconstruction after a collision. Maintaining the original form and material helps preserve the visual consistency of the cabin and reduces the risk of fitment issues.

Condition, origin, and practical application

The seat comes from a BMW disassembly, which allows for the preservation of factory manufacturing specifications and compatibility with the body structure. As a used component, it is a good compromise between cost and maintaining the original character of the interior. It will prove useful both when replacing a single upholstery element and during a broader modernization of the rear cabin, e.g., while refreshing a BMW E87 model year vehicle.
