Purpose and BMW fitment

The presented backrest has been designed specifically for the driver or passenger seat on the front right side in BMW X5 E70 and X6 E71 vehicles. Thanks to a design consistent with factory solutions, it ensures proper fitment to the seat frame, rails, and adjustment elements, which facilitates installation and allows for maintaining the original seat geometry. Dedicated application for specific BMW models reduces the risk of compatibility issues and eliminates the need for upholstery modifications.

Material and leather finish

The backrest is made of black leather, which allows for consistency with the factory interior finish in versions equipped with leather upholstery. The leather surface provides a pleasant-to-the-touch, stable contact with the user's back and facilitates cleaning – dirt can be removed using appropriate leather care products. The black color scheme effectively masks typical signs of wear and matches most interior configurations used in these models.

Utility function and driving comfort

The seat backrest is responsible for proper back support, body stabilization, and comfort during long journeys. Replacing a worn or damaged element with an original leather backrest allows you to:

• restore the proper shape of back support,
• reduce discomfort resulting from abrasions or deformation of the old upholstery,
• maintain a consistent look of the seat with other interior elements,
• preserve the factory character of the BMW X5 E70 / X6 E71 cabin.

Thanks to this, driving comfort and seat ergonomics remain at a level similar to the solutions intended by the manufacturer.

Characteristics of the used component

The backrest comes from dismantling, which means it is a used component. This type of part allows for an economical seat repair while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. Used OEM components are often chosen by workshops and individual users as a reasonable compromise between cost and maintaining the factory standard of workmanship. Original BMW origin promotes proper fitment with other seat and interior elements.
