Used headrests vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The BMW iX (U11 generation, launched in the UK from 2022) is currently a single-generation model with no facelift boundary yet confirmed, so headrests from any production year are broadly likely to be compatible provided the trim level and seat style match. The main variables are trim level — xDrive40, xDrive50, and M60 variants can feature different seat specifications — and which specific seat position you need (front or rear, nearside or offside). Always confirm the exact trim and seat position with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
Yes, trim level does matter for the iX because different grades — xDrive40, xDrive50, and the performance M60 — can be fitted with different seat designs and upholstery specifications, meaning the headrest shape or attachment mechanism may differ. If your car has an optional sport or comfort seat upgrade, that can also affect compatibility beyond the standard trim spec. Give the breaker your full registration and trim details so they can match the correct seat variant.
For front headrests it generally does not matter which side the seat is on, as front headrests are typically interchangeable left to right within the same seat specification. Rear headrests can vary by position (nearside, offside, or centre), so be specific about exactly which position you need when contacting the breaker. Confirming the seat row and position will help the breaker pull the right part first time.
No — the headrest is an interior trim part and fitment is determined by generation, trim level, and seat specification, not by whether the car is an xDrive40, xDrive50, or M60 in terms of motor output. The BMW iX is a fully electric model in all its variants, so there is no engine-related variation to worry about here. Focus on matching trim level and seat type rather than drivetrain when sourcing your part.
No — the iX (U11) and the iX3 (G08) are entirely different models on different platforms, and their interior components including headrests are not shared. Even though both carry the 'iX' name, you should source a headrest specifically listed for your model. Confirm the exact model and generation with the breaker and quote your registration to avoid any mix-up.
You should provide your vehicle registration (so the breaker can confirm the exact build spec), the trim level (xDrive40, xDrive50, or M60), whether you need a front or rear headrest, and the seating position (nearside, offside, or centre rear). If your car has optional upholstery or upgraded seats such as sport or massaging seats, mention that too as it can affect the headrest design. The more detail you supply upfront, the better the chance of the breaker matching the correct part to your vehicle.
