Purpose and Fitment for BMW X1 F48

The backrest has been specifically designed for the front left seat of the BMW X1 F48, ensuring correct geometry, shape, and mounting points. Installing it in place of the original component allows for the preservation of the seat's safety system and ergonomics without the need for structural modifications.

As an original BMW component, the backrest is compatible with factory seat rails, cushions, and side panels, facilitating servicing and potential future upholstery repairs.

Heated Backrest – Comfort in Low Temperatures

The integrated heated backrest function enhances driving comfort in cold conditions, reducing the warm-up time for the back area compared to air vents alone. The backrest is designed to work with the factory seat heating control system in the BMW X1 F48, allowing for original operation from the interior panel.

Drivers undertaking long journeys will particularly appreciate the heated backrest, as a stable temperature for the back and shoulders leads to reduced fatigue and more even muscle support.

Dakota Leather – Durable and Aesthetic Finish

The upholstery is made from natural Dakota leather, which is factory-fitted in many BMW models as a premium finish. This material is characterized by good resistance to abrasion and, with proper care, maintains its aesthetic appearance for a long time.

Dakota leather provides:

• a consistent look with other elements of the BMW X1 F48 interior,
• easier cleaning compared to fabric,
• a comfortable contact surface for your back with the backrest during daily use.

Characteristics of a Used Component

The backrest is a salvaged part, making it a cost-effective solution for repairing or replacing a damaged seat. A used component allows you to maintain the original character of the interior without having to use replacements with a different texture or leather shade.

Choosing an original, used backrest is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, replacements after airbag deployment, or for localized upholstery damage where maintaining the factory equipment standard is important.
