E89 sports seats into E85

Post by Ngpyellow » Tue Oct 13, 2020 7:43 pm

Hi all
Looking for some help.
Do sports seats from an E89 model fit into an E85.
If yes is this without or with any modifications.
Thanks Neil

I think a few people have been asking this question without much success. Someone need to take the plunge.

I remember road warrior buying a set of these for his e85. I asked back then if they fitted but never got an answer.

I think the consensus is they will not plug and play, with some modification they could be made to do but depends how handy you are on the tools and how much effort you're wiling to go to
if its got tits or tyres..its trouble :D

IIRC its been done a few times on here over the years, in a few different ways.

A quick search through this up, but I'm sure I've also seen others
