| Senior Member  | E36-E46 Conversion At the bottom of the page: You can fit all the E46 seats in aswell the rears fit straight in and the bolt them to floor and to rear of chassis the fronts can be bolted to steel plate and then welded to floor see pic26 also the E46 interior mirror fits on to the windscreen easily. |

Poon's pictures | Not worth the effort, and I don't like the idea of welding anything to the car that doesn't need to be there. You're better off looking for a set of Recaro Vader seats. An absolutely fantastic upgrade over the stock comfort seats. They will bolt right in to your E36. Usually available in Tan or Black.

crash991's pictures | I agree. I ended up not purchasing the seats and will go with something that actually fits as you have mentioned. The vaders are definitely nice...now if I can just find a decent deal on them! |
