Purpose and compatibility with BMW models

The presented armrest has been designed specifically for BMW X3 F97 and BMW X4 F98 models, which translates into a precise fit for the centre console. The design corresponds to factory mounting points, ensuring that installation is straightforward and does not require any interior modifications. Compatibility with the control layout and the centre tunnel structure characteristic of these BMW generations is fully maintained.

Construction, material, and ergonomics

The armrest belongs to the Console parts category, responsible for the functionality and aesthetics of the central cockpit area. The black leather cover creates a visually cohesive element with other interior components while providing a pleasant-to-touch, durable working surface. Its placement in the front cabin area improves the ergonomics of the centre console, making it easier to rest your forearm while driving.

This solution contributes to comfort on long journeys by stabilizing the driver's arm position and reducing fatigue. At the same time, the functionality of the space around the centre tunnel is preserved, which is important when frequently using controls and storage compartments.

Performance characteristics of the used part

The armrest is offered as a used part, which allows for an economical replacement of an interior component while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. This type of component is particularly useful for repairs following mechanical damage, upholstery wear, or when restoring a cohesive cabin look after previous modifications. Choosing an original part from the secondary market helps preserve the vehicle's factory character and reduces the risk of installation issues typical of aftermarket replacements.

Application in the centre console area

The centre console armrest serves both functional and aesthetic purposes in the front interior. In daily use, it contributes to:

• stable support for the driver's and front passenger's arm,
• organizing the space around the centre tunnel,
• maintaining the cohesive, factory styling line of the BMW X3 F97 / X4 F98 interior.

Thanks to the black leather finish, the element blends well with other cockpit components, which is important for maintaining visual continuity of materials and colours.
