Seems that leather 2door sport seats fetch top dollar, has anyone got after market seats or fitted seats from a totally different car..

I kno people have fitted e36 and e46 front seats in there cars but what about the back seats

if its leather, maybe some sport or comfort leather e30 door cards like in that pic, some plain black leather front seats as you say from something else, and then an e30 rear bench in leather, like a comfort one even, a leather rear e30 bench is prob not that hard to source

Forking out for a matching sport leather interior may be a chunk of money, but their value will only rise.

There's no such thing as sport doorcards, they're all purely dependant and seat trim, so all black leather interiors have the above doorcards. Also what on earth is a comfort rear bench? :mad:

my guess would be he is trying to make a fake m3 bench?

you could try it but i suspect you would need some serious alterations to the side cushions, is it was me, i'd use a cab rear bench and custom side bolsters, it would probably work out more than a real one though.
