Seat replacement

[underDAWG]

After 17 years, my 325E seat shows its age. Any suggestion on the aftermarket replacement seat? TIA.

Thanks for the link. I will check it out later.

I want an adjustable seat rather than a fixed bucket.

You can't go wrong with the E30 M3 Recaros. I put a set in my 318 and they are quite possibly the most adjustable, comfortable seats that I have ever had.

I don't really care if she knows how to sit properly as long as she is on my lap.

BTW, are there any seat replacement for less than $500. For $1249 each, the damn chairs is going be more than my 325E , just can't see the justification.

Have you tried eBay? They usually have E30 seats on there for reasonable price...

I'm also interested in replacing the seats in my e30 (cracking leather + worn springs + hard horsehair = very uncomfortable ride). Does anybody know if 2-door seats can be installed into a 4-door car? I would like to upgrade to sport seats, but I don't want to buy them if the won't work. The springs on my rear bench seem okay, and the leather isn't TOO bad, but I think I'd rather have foam padding than horsehair, and I don't know if it's possible to "convert" a horsehair seat to foam.

Since I'll have to get the seats used and it will be harder to match the current tan color than to just buy a set and change the color, does anybody have any suggestions for switching interior color, for either replacing or recoloring the doorpanels and carpeting? I don't know if there were any colors other than black, burgundy, or tan available (grey would be a nice match for my arctic blue exterior, methinks).
