Purpose and fitment

The presented headrest is dedicated to the rear bench of BMW X3 models of the G01 and F97 (M version) generations, with the option of installation on either the left or right side. Thanks to its factory OEM design, it maintains full compatibility with the original guides and height adjustment mechanism, which facilitates installation and guarantees proper seating in the backrest.

The item belongs to the Other seat parts group, meaning it is intended for supplementing and servicing the factory seat system without interfering with the structure of the seats or the bench.

Material and finish

The headrest is made of high-quality Vernasca leather in the Oyster color, characteristic of premium BMW interiors. This type of upholstery provides:

• a consistent visual match to original seats with the same finish,
• adequate resistance to daily use,
• ease of cleaning using standard automotive leather care products.

The neutral, light Oyster shade emphasizes the spaciousness of the interior and blends well with both dark and light cockpit elements.

Function and user comfort

The rear headrest plays a key role in terms of ergonomics and safety for rear-seat passengers. The properly contoured cushion provides:

• stable head support while driving,
• increased comfort on longer journeys,
• reduction of cervical spine strain during sudden maneuvers.

Thanks to the factory design, full compatibility with standard backrest and seat settings is maintained, allowing you to keep ergonomics in line with BMW standards.

Condition and service application

The item comes from disassembly and is offered as a used part, which is a reasonable choice for post-accident repairs, replacing worn-out headrests, or restoring the completeness of the interior. In many cases, such a part allows for:

• lower service costs compared to a new component,
• preserving the original character of the cabin,
• color and material consistency with the remaining seats.

The Rear Seat Headrest BMW X3 G01 F97 M Left Right N/O/S Leather Vernasca Oyster can also be used in retrofit projects when the vehicle owner wants to supplement missing rear bench elements or replace color-inconsistent components.
