Do the front mats not attach to the floor anchors? I seem to remember trying some anchor-less cheapo mats like that a while back and struggling to keep it in place.

I also tend to kick shit around while I'm driving so...

All you have to do is poke a hole in the mat above the attachment point in the floor and use the oe anchors (not the crappy velcro ones)

There is never a reason to deal with a mat sliding around in an e46

Thanks guys, I'll add both to the list.

Hm. Good tip. Thanks.

They are supposed to actually anchor and have the velcro area underneath. Will post my thought and review when I get them.

I don’t see an LS in this picture.

I went to a junk yard and found a rear sway from the 330cic to complement the z4m front sway I've had sitting in my garage. Hopefully I'll have time to install them this weekend.

At the same time I pulled both front seats from the same convertible. I'm going to use the parts to retrofit the seat heaters and lumbar adjustments (both drivers and passenger had lumbar adjustment)... this project might be a little further down the road, maybe summertime.

I've been thinking about it...but I have a spare B30 over here that I want to play with first. If I do a good job on that, then we'll see what happens next.
