Love it!

Where are people getting these seats? Finding people selling separately or can full seats be ordered somewhere?

yeah, the seatback fits no problems, but the base needs to be modified (I didnt bother installing the base)

No coding needed, fit took about 4 hours? (including cleanup and storing of my old seats etc) so not too bad

1. Are you planning on colour matching the stitching?
2. Were you able to get the back light for the ///M4 badge to work?

Not going to bother with lighting the badge, pretty content

Ill need to do the stitching when i have a weekend free.. the problem is, i found a pen thats a quite similar to the blue, but because the m4's stitching is hrey, it doesnt match... only recourse is to either reupholster which will be too expensive, or dye the stitching black then do the thread mod

Cops should be at your house for ROBBERY ...AUD $3400 (that's approx $2500 USD) is an absolute steal for these seats...was there any issues with them? (i.e. scuffs, stains, tears, etc.) ... lots of guys looking for a set in Black, including yours truly.

Example...
USD $4K for a set of SO (regular M4) https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1439005

You have to swap out the module with your original seats (it’s a grey box), but the plugs are identical

Hello, just a quick question did you buy them as they are? because most m4 seats are automatic, i need manual ones and how did you solve the wiring for the light up badge or did you just leave it without?
