Am I right in thinking that these are regular E30 seats and not M3? (especially the rear)
I'm thinking of buying an OE interior for my M3 track car and have been offered these seats, hence the need for clarification.

The rear seats are normal coupe ones, not to sure on fronts.

Yeah, that's what I figured. What sort of money are they worth? ballpark figure. The bolster on the passenger seat needs repairing but they're ok overall.

yes the fronts are convertable (still fit a 2 door saloon ok)
the rears are 2 door saloon
The drivers and passenger are the wrong way round (just stating the obvious)
probably worth £200

If anyone is interested, pm for his number.

Convertible and M3 front seats are the same apart from the levers on the base.

Oh and if the rear seat is in good condition then its £150 on its own as its got head rests, centre arm rest and is for a 2dr not 4dr.
If the mechs are good on the front seats and its just a worn drivers bolster then they are £100-150 all day long.

Am I right in thinking that he convertible front tilt levers are usually lower down than a normal coupe front seat? if I'm correct then those fronts could well be from a M3.

Other way round.
To compensate for the deeper sills on a convertible.
