Power adjusted ‘rake’ for the rear seats.  A cost option on the E53 that allowed those in the back to change the angle of the backrest.  There will be another connector on the other side too.  Extra switches were also put either side of the rear hatch so you could adjust the seat back when loading the boot.  :)

Replacing the back seat with the right parts, assuming you can still get them.  Have a look on Realoem for the parts and then I guess eBay?
