Purpose and compatibility with BMW E90 E91 LCI

The presented headrest has been developed for the rear seats of the BMW 3 Series E90/E91 generation after the facelift (LCI). This means that its geometry, guide spacing, and shape comply with the manufacturer's factory requirements, which translates into a secure fit in the backrest and proper operation with the height adjustment mechanism. Dedicated design for a specific BMW generation minimizes the risk of installation issues and eliminates the need for modifications.

Upholstery material and color

The headrest is covered in black leather upholstery, matched to the standard interior finishes of the BMW 3 Series. The black color allows for easy integration into most interior configurations, ensuring an aesthetic and cohesive look for the rear seat. The material used is practical for everyday use, resistant to typical operational wear, and easy to keep clean, which is especially important in vehicles used intensively.

Function, ergonomics, and safety

The role of the rear seat headrest is primarily to limit the strain on the cervical spine during sudden braking or a collision. The component's design has been developed to:

• provide proper head support for the rear seat passenger,
• work with the seat backrest in terms of height adjustment,
• maintain a stable position without play or unwanted vibrations.

Thanks to this, rear seat travel comfort is significantly higher, and the passenger's position is more ergonomic, which is important both on long trips and in daily city driving.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered headrest comes from dismantling, which allows for maintaining the original BMW specification while reducing purchase costs. A used component is a good solution in situations where:

• the factory headrest has been damaged or lost,
• it is necessary to replace a single rear seat element after a collision or upholstery repair,
• you want to restore the completeness of the interior after previous modifications.

Choosing an original second-hand headrest allows you to maintain the factory fit and interior appearance without the need to invest in expensive replacements with uncertain compatibility.

Integration with other BMW seat components

Economic and ecological approach to repairs

Purchasing a used headrest is not only a saving but also a real contribution to reducing automotive waste. By choosing a dismantled component, you extend its life cycle and reduce the demand for the production of new components.
