I thought so. But the M3 front seats would still fit on the same 330Ci rails, correct?Quote:

I swapped an M3 interior into my ZHP coupé. I prefer the look and feel of the smooth leather to the coarser grain of the stuff that was stock in my car, but the M3 seats are more stuffed, I guess, so I sit a little higher than I'd prefer. I have to recline the seat a little when wearing a helmet.
@ryankokesh is your airbag light on? I just hooked up PASoft to my car, hoping to reset the light after swapping my seats (see above) and the code it shows for that light is due to the driver's side tensioner. Which hasn't been right since I swapped the rest of the interior…*(see above)
Yeah, I don't really feel like taking the car apart, but I can't stand having to feed the seatbelt back in.Quote:

I was (and still am) quite perplexed by this, especially since I can't drive in my usual track memory seating position because the helmet doesn't clear the headliner anymore like it used to.
My seats have lumbar support. My theory is that this may be a trait specific to lumbar support cars, though I have absolutely zero evidence to back it up. I need to try sitting in a car that has leather but without lumbar, with my helmet on, to see what it's like.. Do your M3 seats have lumbar support?
Yeah, my seats are loaded. The old ones (standard leather, not alcantara) had neither neat nor lumbar. So there could be something to that. I notice the same thing between my MINI and my wife's MINI. Mine has cloth and leather seats, but hers has the English lounge leather. I sit much higher up in her car.
Nope... no light for me. It isn't too bad at retracting yet, though.Quote:
