E36 M3 interior question

Theo · 12-14-2006, 06:09 PM

I have been considering my options for recovering my front seats in the E36.

One thought has been replacing all the Dove leather pieces including the door panels with black pieces from a lesser 328 letherette car. I can probably find and collect the door pieces from various wrecked cars.

My big concern is do the regular 328 seats use the same foam core pattern as the M3 convert/lux seats. I know they look the same. At $1200 a piece, the leather covers are WAY out of reach. The leatherette covers however could be within a decent price range.

Does anyone know if they are the same?
