Perfect for keeping the jacket wrinkle free. Easy enough to install and remove.

I am using it in an Acura TL. I expect it will work in any automobile the has the same type of two rod headrest supports (i.e. not just for BMW).

Only comment I'll make is that it could be a bit sturdier - the hanger has a bit more flex in it than I prefer. Time will tell... That's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

Overall, I am very pleased with the product.

Extremely overpriced, but if you own a Break My Wallet and want an official B.M.W. coathanger, then bend over and grab your ankles. I've purchased many genuine BMW parts from a dealership and most of the time, I'm pleasantly surprised by how inexpensive it is. Not so with this part.

This is not a criticism of the company I purchased it from (Lukas). Their price was very similar to the dealership price (where I get a substantial "frequent flyer" discount). This appears to be a discontinued item that the dealership could no longer get, so Lukas was my backup.

On top of this, it isn't very convenient to use in a hatchback (probably the same goes for coupes). I have to tilt the seatback forward to use it. The main hanger part can dislodge from the base and fall to the floor a little to easily. I'm also slightly concerned about rear seat passengers doing a face plant on it during hard braking or a front-end collision.
