Yes the seats are really comfortable and support is much better than the original seats. I have been in touch with FishyDave who replied quickly with the link to the American company that provided your harness. Unfortunately when I tried the link it doesn't look as if it is still available. I am going to try contacting the company directly to see if they can help. Failing that, as FishyDave suggested I'll try BMW UK. I am also going to check out the option of wiring the seats directly to the battery through a fused power distribution block. Although having little knowledge or expertise in this area I need to be careful or I could do some damage. Thank you for your help. I'll let you know how I get on.
Kind Regards
Ian

They look brilliant Marlon. I must admit I would choose silver as my first choice rather than black. Although the black looks good.You are going to run out of ideas for improving this car soon. Then you'll have to sell it and start again. Let me know when you do!

You on the kerb there, Marlon? Angle looks a bit strange...
Nice set of wheels there, i do like 224's... but does that mean the A pillars have to change colour again

Thanks everyone
Yes I'm on the kerb Mark - and no I'm not changing the A pillars, grilles have gone to silver though (and something else has changed for the eagle eyed )
