But see what you lot think just such a nice seat have to change part of the stitching

I'm afraid it's a hell no from me.
I'm no fan of the original seats, but these are a little too racey for my taste.

Regular recaros (Specialist/LX) aren't too hard to find - they look great and fit in the E21.
You'll need the recaro E21 adapters/consol though, unless you want to modify your car.

Which recaro seats are they ? Out of what vehicle and also where can you get adapters. Sorry for all the questions.
I do have a set of these out of a e30 325 not sure what ones they are though
As I plan on a full re trim on the seat but don't think il use these ones

These ones are the later E30 sports seats and they need some mods to be fitted in an E30 if you want to retain full functionality and not end up with your head stuck against the headlining. But most contemporary Recaro seats can be made to fit and there are enough around from other cars, or general ones, that are less rare than with BMW cloth. Plain black ones, or from several Fords, like the LS series, that should not be too hard to locate and I think these will fit better when it comes to looks imo.

Oright thanks il keep
My eye out I don't mind abit of fabricating to make them fit but as I plan on going to have them all re trimmed I would rather have the seats I really want. I though about keeping the standard seats but not a big fan and abit un-comfy

Hi, I have a set of adapter plates that came with my car, they bolt to existing mount points and give you a flat platform to any seat runners in, pm your email address and I can send a pic or 2 if interested cheers Gra
