Does anyone know if the above moulding was very different to the recaro ls ones or if they can be modified to fit etc

thanks

Sadly not the same - can't comment on whether they can be bodged on.

My ex-E30 had Recaro LS factory option seats. And it had missing the same plastic cover. If i remember correct the right one was missing and i had only the left. So i was thinking to try to fit the cover from the stock seats to the Recaro, but it doesn't fit for sure.

Check realoem, the cover for one of the sides was ended, but for the other side is still avaiable.

I tried to find second hand, but i couldn't, because as you may know these seats are very rare for E30.

There is only one way to make it. The BMW Sports seats covers are almost the same as the LS ones. Make a fiberglass copy, paint it and install it. Ofcourse if you can't find the OEM cover

Thanks for the info will look into the sports seats scenario. Do you still have the left side one and if so you willing to sell it

Thanks

No, mate, i sold the car right before i start making a copy of the cover. So all i can do is to share my ideas when i had the same problem.

Good luck and keep posting how is it going.
