I have a set of M3 cloth seats in my 320, and as usual they have a few wear patches on the bolsters. Can you still get the material from the main dealer to repair them. Also any idea on the price? Cheers

as far as i know u can still buy the replacement covers for seats from bmw, u also need to buy the clips that hold the fabric to the metal gubbins of the seat and i think u need a special tool but cant remember. have seen it done and takes about an hour to do a seat base
