Purpose and fitment for BMW E91 Touring

The presented backrest is designed for the rear, right side of the bench seat in the BMW E91 Touring body style. The structure is engineered for factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and allows for the preservation of the original geometry of the rear bench. The component is dedicated to a specific interior configuration, ensuring that after installation, the split lines, shape, and profile of the backrest remain consistent with the rest of the upholstery.

Material and finish: Dakota Beige leather

The backrest is made of Dakota leather upholstery in beige, characteristic of higher BMW trim levels. This type of leather combines a pleasant-to-the-touch texture with good resistance to daily use. The light beige color visually brightens the interior, enhances the sense of spaciousness, and complements the factory trim elements of the BMW E91 Touring.

The leather surface of the rear backrest is easy to keep clean – dirt from daily use can be removed using dedicated leather care products, which helps maintain a consistent, well-kept appearance of the rear bench for a long time.

Function in the seating system and passenger comfort

The rear right seat backrest is responsible for stable back support for the passenger and the proper shaping of the rear bench. A correctly selected component:

• maintains the factory seat profile in the BMW E91 Touring,
• provides even support along the entire height of the back,
• reduces unwanted sagging and structural creaking,
• helps maintain a uniform line and tension of the upholstery across the entire width of the bench.

As a result, the rear cabin remains ergonomic, and passengers enjoy a comfortable and aesthetic travel space, in line with the character of the BMW brand.

Characteristics of the used component

The backrest comes from disassembly, which means it is an original BMW component from real-world use. Such parts are frequently chosen for post-accident repairs, replacing worn-out upholstery sections, or restoring the interior to a factory-like condition, while maintaining material and color compatibility with the remaining parts of the bench.

Expansion and modernization of the BMW interior

When making major changes to the cabin, it is worth considering matching other upholstery elements to the same type of leather and color to maintain visual and functional consistency of the entire seating set.
