Application and Purpose

The presented BMW E92 Front Right Seat Belt is dedicated for installation in the front, right position, which is the front passenger side. This component is responsible for securely holding the person seated in the front seat during driving, braking, and in the event of a collision, working in conjunction with the airbag and pretensioner systems.

Thanks to BMW's factory design, the belt maintains the correct tape routing geometry, which translates to predictable operation of the safety system and correct force distribution on the passenger's chest and pelvis.

Construction and Technical Compatibility

As a BMW branded component, the seat belt has been designed for specific mounting points in the E92 body. It includes a complete retractor mechanism with a lock, tape guide, and mounting to the seat and pillar structure, allowing for installation without body modifications.

The belt has an assigned OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific equipment version and year of the BMW E92. This allows for precise selection of the part for the existing installation, minimizing the risk of incorrect fitment.

The vehicle placement described as front - right clearly indicates the installation side, which is crucial when ordering seat belts – left and right components are not interchangeable.

Condition, Origin, and Benefits of Choosing a Used Part

The offered BMW E92 seat belt is used, allowing you to combine factory OEM construction with an attractive price compared to a new component. Choosing an original, used part from a dismantled vehicle often provides better assembly compatibility than aftermarket replacements of unknown origin.

Key advantages of using an original BMW seat belt:

• Factory Fitment – compatibility with the seat, pillar, and sill structure in the E92 body.
• Predictable System Operation – interaction with standard electronics and the airbag system.
• Interior Consistency – maintaining the original character of the BMW cabin, without visual compromises.
• Economical Repair – the ability to restore full functionality of the safety system without needing to purchase a new set.

Selection, Installation, and Safety Aspects

Before installation, it is recommended to compare the old part with the offered belt and verify compatibility by SKU and part numbers in the technical specification. Correct selection is crucial for maintaining the full functionality of the safety system.

During installation, pay attention to:

• Correct Tape Routing – no twists or kinks along its entire length.
• Proper Tightening of Mounting Points – in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
• Integration with Electrical System – for versions with a pyrotechnic pretensioner or seatbelt sensor.
• Locking Mechanism Check – test the mechanism's response to a sudden pull of the belt.

Due to the importance of the seat belt for passenger protection, installation should be performed by someone experienced in working with passive safety systems.
