Something else that might be worth checking if the seats ar a bit wobbly are the pins that attach the seat to the rinners and act as a pivot for the seatbase height adjustment, mine had a little slack in them so I replaced them, only a few quid IIRC from the stealers....

http://www.esatclear.ie/~bpurcell/318isseat.html has a pretty comprehensive guide on how to pull the seats apart.
My drivers seat had a severe wobble - turned out that the bracket listed as the third problem had sheared at the corner. Got a mate to weld it up, and is now good as new.
