i think to put them from a cab to a saloon its not as bad as saloon to cab..
if i remember correctly its the mounts for the backrest thats different, could be wrong though.

They are not as wide as saloon seat I believe. They will fit with some fannying about, but you'll probably need to fit the side panels and modify them.
I remember that yellow tech 2 turd that E30partz did had cab rear seats with modified side panels, but I can't be arsed trawling for a pic of it

Indeed the tech 2 turd had some cabby seats. All that he done was fit the cabby doorcards and some speaker builds made to fit in the gap in each corner of the doorcards. Sounds confusing cant find a pic atm. I still have the speaker bulds if intrestedE30BeemerLad wrote:They are not as wide as saloon seat I believe.

I'd personally hold out for a good 2 door interior, plus it'll have the correct stitching pattern
It had 18 Alpina's IIRC.

You can
A couple of Zoner's have done theirs, changed colour or just dyed same colour again and the results were very good.
