Sounds like a stupid question but am I in trouble when it comes to finding an interior or even just the front seats?

Where are you based?
They're rare but come up regularly enough.

In Ireland but travelling to the UK wouldn't bother me. Do they tend to be expensive, is there a sort of RRP?

Usually go for about 200 - 275 dependent on condition and whether they're e21 ones or modified VW, Opel or whatever. Unless you're into originality you could always modify e30 sports seats or something similar? They tend to sit an inch or so higher though.

Those are average prices for average condition seats. Rare versions or mint condition can fetch a bit more.

I'm not fussy as long as they are S model 323i items. Glad to hear this anyway, I was dreading looking for them as I've heard horror stories about having to use Capri items over here.

The S edition Recaro's have the same cloth pattern as the 'regular' E21 Recaro's so with some patience you should be able to locate a set
