those are the specs of the car as it left the factory... there could be dealer and/or aftermarket things installed that are not noted there but it gives you a good reference point for RealOEM searches, when there are several similar parts for an application, dependent on a specific option installed or not - you can look it up and see what you have and which part to order.

the "iS" is a top of the line model,which had only couple options available - front heated seats were standard on US 8-cylinder models, and the "iS" added standard rear heated seats.
options at the time were: rear airbags, sliding loading floor, nav, some places TV, some places 20" rims were optional and the 19" were standard, RDC could be offered for some markets and not the others...

Some options that were normally installed by a dealer were also installable from the factory, like running boards (almost all Canadian orders had them), towing package, roof racks with the luggage compartment, there were also Individual options that had to be ordered through the Individual division of the BMW, and could be whatever was available... I also saw one unit that was military order, that had some US and Euro specs in the radio and something else...


While probably it is possible to have rear heated seats and not the fronts, chances are you have all 4 corners heated...

check for option S494A - heated front seats...
