Purpose and fitment for BMW E90 / E91 LCI

The presented seat is designed as a factory-fitted component for the BMW 3 Series E90 / E91 generation after the facelift (LCI), which ensures proper fitment to the body structure and interior ergonomics. The front right-hand placement allows for a direct replacement of the existing seat without the need for modifications to mounts or cabin geometry. By maintaining the original seat and backrest geometry, the seat supports the correct passenger position, which is important for both comfort and safety.

Materials and finish: Black Dakota leather

The upholstery is made of natural Black Dakota leather, characteristic of BMW due to its texture and durability. This type of leather withstands intensive use well while maintaining an aesthetic appearance with proper care. The dark color scheme makes it easy to keep the seat clean and complements most interior configurations, from classic to more sporty. The seat and backrest construction has been developed to provide stable lateral support and comfort under varying loads during city and highway driving.

Heating function and user comfort

The built-in seat heating increases interior functionality during the autumn and winter seasons, reducing the time required to warm up the cabin on the passenger side. Integration with the vehicle's electrical system allows for temperature control via factory switches, maintaining operational consistency with other comfort systems. The heated seat and backrest reduce the discomfort associated with the low temperature of leather upholstery, improving the subjective feeling of comfort within the first minutes of driving.

Characteristics of the used seat

The seat comes from disassembly, meaning it is a used item that retains the features of an original BMW part. This type of component is a cost-effective solution when replacing a worn or damaged seat, allowing you to maintain the stylistic consistency of the interior without the need to invest in new parts. The original construction ensures compatibility with factory mounting points and the vehicle's electrical installation, which facilitates installation in a workshop environment.

Interior upgrades and additional resources

Replacing a standard seat with a heated model in Black Dakota leather is a frequently chosen step in upgrading the interior of a BMW 3 Series, especially when converting the interior to a more comfortable configuration or one closer to higher trim levels.
