Swap? E85 M SPORT HEATED HALF LEATHER SEATS RARE?
Standard seats get pretty much given away, I sold a pristine set for about 150 (memory heated no marks)
But your half leather, at a guess, non heated manual sport seats 3-400?
Have a sit in an SE seat before you swap is my advice. They don't hug at all in spirited driving

I agree with this, you might be better off storing these and purchasing some standard sport seats. Come resale t8me not having M Sport seats will be a kick in the nuts.philbo909 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 12, 2018 6:01 am Standard seats get pretty much given away, I sold a pristine set for about 150 (memory heated no marks)

As above they are very cheap to pick up. I have msport seats and my pal has se seats and I definitely feel I sit lower down. He is 6.4 and loads of head room

If a swap is still of interest following the advice, I have a set of really nice condition Se seats out of the car and available tight now. I fitted some e46 m sport seats as a replacement but would ideally like some z4 seats. I am in basingstoke and would be more than happy for you to try/ see both. Maybe the e46 seats could be a good option as they are a little bigger and comfier in my opinion. We could work out a swap for either. Just let me know if interested.

Not sure these come up all that often, so I'd hold onto them if I were you! Also yours look heated so maybe able to stretch a bit more than the £400 if you were to sell up?philbo909 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 12, 2018 6:01 am Standard seats get pretty much given away, I sold a pristine set for about 150 (memory heated no marks)

Must be a garage selling a pre-facelift roadster somewhere near you? Just don't go have a look in the Zed! The cabin size will be the same as your facelift, just the seats will be different... I'm not all that sure you'll gain any of the space you're after though?

I would be interested in a swap and could travel to you, pending that you had tried and were happy with the SE seats.
I notice, your seats are manual, I have manual seats as well, it would make the process a simple bolt in.

Also, are these more desirable being half leather in a chilly soft top? seems all full leather in other cars!

I would be interested in a deal with some cash to you. As said in earlier post, this could be for either my se seats or e46 m sport ones. You would be welcome to try both. Let me know if of interest. Cheers

Sell them, buy some E46 M3 Seats. The regular seats are awful!
