anybody done it / know if it's possible?
Guess by building some sort of mounting plate... that's if they will physically fit
any thoughts much appreciated

agree with the e36 seat in a e30, sure i'm offending someone but like the rest of the car
as for the m5 seats, different story - really want them in my car.
We'll see...

decided to do just that, phoned the breakers told them I was coming to collect. Sold them 5 mins before i got there.
feckers.
Oh well, maybe god intervened - I'd have only cocked up the installation and had some sort of failure during head on collision.
All I need now is someone to tell me they'd have never fitted and I'll feel better.

probably good thing you didn't see the end it came to - depressing. When I first went they were hacking the engine out (true breakers style), I stopped watching when they took a blunt knife to the hoses -
couldn't face watching it bleed...
sad.

sorry dude, now I feel depressed and guilty (no smiley for that)
Here's hoping they all die of asbestosis
if it makes you feel any better I'll happily say i made it all up...
or here's to sharing the misery.
