• consistency with the original mounting system – appropriate receptacle for the seat belt buckle,
• maintained user ergonomics – convenient access to the buckle for the passenger sitting in the middle.

The placement indicated as "rear" means the component is intended exclusively for the rear cabin, in the middle seating position.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Buckle

Choosing an original BMW seat belt buckle offers a range of practical advantages:

• maintaining factory safety parameters – the component is designed for a specific model and seating arrangement,
• reliable latch mechanism operation – proper holding of the belt tongue and predictable performance during use,
• aesthetic integration with the interior – design tailored to the bench seat lines and original BMW finish,
• easier installation – can be installed in place of the original component without modifying the seat structure.

Condition and Practical Application

This item comes from the used BMW parts category, allowing for an economical restoration of the seat belt system's functionality while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. This solution is particularly useful after damage to the original buckle, replacement of the rear bench seat, or when completing missing interior components.

Before installation, a standard check of the latch mechanism's correct operation and proper seating in the seat structure is recommended to ensure safe vehicle operation.
