Please tell me that's not a 333i with BK Councilpinas! :cry: :roll:

It's bad enough blighting a 316 with those things.

Dunno, TBH I'm having trouble with it. It seems that there are a few differences on these very early cars. Runners are a little closer together, and the "feet" on the seats are shallower, so I'm having to experiment with swapping bits of the runners over to the leather seats I have. There may even be some cutting and welding involved, so I'm not sure if the seats would be saleable afterwards! 8O

Ahhh, it's not a full interior removal then? Carpet was what i had my eyes on.

Sounds a fun task with the runners :mad:
