vader seats

[cruizin4dirty1s]

hi guys has anyone ever retro fitted vader seats from an e36 into an e30 im thinking bout trying this if i can get a set in black leather

[blingsta]

ive just put some in my cabby mate, they look and feel awesome. .. just need to retrim the headrest on them as they were involved in fire damage from before...

the back holes line up and can be boled down to the floor pan but for the front bolt holes, you eill need to drill two holes into the floor pan and use long bolts and nuts... can be a pain to fit, but final look is well worth it !!

[raj1980]

i dont want to offend anyone and i really like the vadar seats; i feel they will not suit an e30

[ImysE30]

I think they look Just look at bootyman's cabby

I await blingsta

[raj1980]

[raj1980]

looks cool, but i couldnt drive that.

[ImysE30]

I'd kill to own that

It's a pure show car, one if not the best

[raj1980]

the wide arch kit on a e30 cab that i have seen is a black one. let me see if i can find any pics of it.

[ImysE30]

There is/was a black one on the Zone, was up for sale IIRC for around 4k

[raj1980]

[raj1980]

only pic i could find.

[ImysE30]

Not sure i like that

But those rear wheels

[A1BMW325iSport]

now those are phat rims! looks a nice car tho

[pac1982]

vader seats wont suit an E30 they look to modern!

[blingsta]

heres mine.. no headrests at the moment

[pac1982]

see way to modern they dont look right at all

[ImysE30]

I like 'em and want some now

What sort of price do they go for?

[blingsta]

the whole e36 interior, normally from £350 onwards mate... i agree with you, i like ! .. there is a cloth set on the bay which the guy wants £200 for then a leather re-trim !

[ImysE30]

Off to eBay

I really should be saving for my engine swap

[blingsta]

i know what its like mate, you try n save for one thing and another thing or two pop up !

[ImysE30]

And it's always stuff that is really nice as well

I was looking at the second link, i think that's a really good price. I wonder how much i would get for my e30 front seats?

[blingsta]

well i sold my front seats for £200 mate... just take a pic and try the for sale section !

[ImysE30]

Mine are in good conditon as well

Need to sell before i buy though, what's it like driving on a bucket for a seat

Is it much work to fit the vader's?

[blingsta]

it can be a bit of a pain to fit and align !! but once 1 side is done, the other one becomes a doddle.. just need to drill 2 holes in the floor pan for the fronts.. i'll be more than happy to fit them for ya mate...

or discuss over the phone if you cant be arsed to make the short journey

[Rav335uk]

I wonder how much i would get for my e30 front seats?

A tenner should do it

[Sawyer_E30]

Do the rear seats fit in the back or am I just talking silly?

[blingsta]

naah, you dont need the rear seats from the e36... but trouble is, they mostly sell as whole interiors

[ImysE30]

I'll see how much interest there is for mine, if enough i might well be doing the same swap

Rav - Is that a tenner plus a M30 engine chucked in

[Rav335uk]

No imy, you pay me

[ImysE30]

I'll kindly refuse that offer thanks

Enfield isn't quite a short journey

[blingsta]

i know mate.. but if you wanna pop down, i'll do it for ya !
