Hi I have heard that you can get some adaptor bracket thingys so the E36 vader seats can just bolt straight in to a E30. I don't really want anyone to be drilling holes in the floor.
Does anyone know where I can get some from and how much they will cost?.

Ebay has loads usually? They're said to be pretty heavy, which is never inviting in most E30's..

Yes those are the seats. I have the vader seats but I need the brackets so they can just bolt straight into a e30. Some people drill through the floor to fit them in but I don't really want that I wanted these bracket thing which some people have and that way they bolt straight in without drilling through the floor.

Yes I have, to be honest they are way too expensive, just for the brackets to be cut out they want £100, excluding bolts and powder coated

If you go on Google and type in kadunza. It's a company in America they have these but they are no longer available. Check them out and see if you can get some made up like that.
