    FOR SALE Z4M E85 E86 parts for sale

Part of the problem I have is that the Planted bracket, while it is purpose-built for Z4, is too high. Also, tunnel side access to bolt down the bracket to...

    Recaro Pole position ABE fitment.

    Thanks both for the feedback. I am not so worried about the side hitting/rubbing against the door card, as I am going to retrim this, so it will get addressed.

    Recaro Pole position ABE fitment.

    Ah, sorry @Ed Doe not sure why I thought you had Recaros on. I have searched the forum as well. I see a few different combos, but I wanted to hear from the owners, as it's hard to tell how low or high from the pictures.

    @Usel just an fyi local bmw have confirmed they can source the heating pads (52107895856) and sensor (65777837724). The receptacles are not available apparently. I have ordered the pads and sensor. If you have z4 receptacles please let me know.
