M Seats

Postby mrlozzer - Thu Jun 14, 2012 3:18 pm

After the disappointment of last week's eBay 'non-auction' for that set of M Seats, I decided rather than moping around to do something positive. So, I've spent the morning tracking down an M interior for my car.

Now I'm usually a big fan of that particular online site for finding car parts, but I went down the old-fashioned route this time and sourced one at a BMW Breakers. Black heated electric memory seats being delivered tomorrow morning - happy days! :dance2:

I've got plans up my sleeve for these seats.... I'll keep you posted. Hopefully a pic tomorrow once I've given them a clean-up!

Same with mine. I think the only change needed is to swap the passenger side occupancy sensor

Was it the breakers that they featured on wheeler dealers? When they got the interior for the E36 M3 that place looked amazing!

Looking forward to this :)

Sound nice - what colour are they?

I'm hoping so too. Just ordered a pre-facelift sensor (P/N 72107919202) from Jamie @ Sopers so hoping that's everything that I need. According to the handy write-up by mac27040, that should be it anyway...

I'm not sure. I didn't see that one... the place I got these from usually breaks older BMWs, although they've had a couple of Z4s in recently...

Good work mate! How much did these set you back if you don't mind me asking?

Also what breakers is it? I am looking for a centre console at the moment and they may be able to help :)

It comes like that! It's all leather: middle section is black, with yellow strips top and bottom and nicely stitched. Some loony must've paid a fortune for this option from the factory but I swallowed a brave pill and installed it in mine. Passing it onto Adamski on Saturday morning :thumbsup:

Better pic of the dash:

OK. Paid £500 for the seats, door cards and some other odds and ends - including delivery - from FAB. I've had some of those console parts, I'm afraid - but they've got a couple of others in at the moment. Don't know what' left, but I do know the interiors, dashboards have gone already :thumbsup:

How soon were you looking for a console? Once my new one has been fitted, I'll be moving on my old one...
