I would go with the Eldor. BMW moved to them after Delphi.

Ignore the fitment. These work in the m54

Gone, but not forgotten: '03 Imola Red 330i ZHP - 6MT
Thanks Guys.
I will likely go with the Delphi ones since they seem to save me >$50 and with fcp warranty, I can replace them sooner for free if they don’t last as long.

Has anyone ever dealt with shipping through uship, or getting a full interior from east coast to west? Have a lead on a set of cinnamon I need to setup shipping for to my city from them.

I used Uship.com to send an engine back to TX. They have an easy to use interface (e.g. selecting options such as tailgate necessary since I don't have a forklift, residential address, etc), and they were the cheapest I could find in my limited search. Ultimately they brokered the shipment through UPS Freight, but the pricing was better than the quote I initially got directly from UPS.
Packaging will be up to the sender. They'll need to palletize the shipment and hopefully protect it accordingly.
I see. Thanks for this info. So for the seats, door panels and such—do I just order one large pallet and have them fit everything on there? Not sure what the guy is gonna do in terms of shipping safety, can’t expect much other than maybe wrapping the seats in some film

I have seen front seats shipped two ways...
the shipper used lots of card board and wrapped the seats in card board and used lots of packaging tape. How he wrapped the seats showed the general shape and the seats arrived unscathed remarkably.
The other way I have seen seats shipped is by a pallet where the seats were mounted on the pallet then tie wrapped to them so they would not move and then wood paneling nailed to the pallet with wood boards serving as a skeleton to form a big wooden box to ship the seats. (much more expensive way but the seats were guaranteed not to be harmed at all... this is how my Porsche Adaptive Sport Seats arrived.
Damn! I'm in a weird spot. Found a guy willing to sell me his full interior in the e̶a̶s̶t̶ ̶c̶o̶a̶s̶t̶ midwest, but really preferred to only sell local until I convinced him. Told him I'll have Uship come and pick it up to make it easy for him, but I doubt he will do any packing or anything. He was pretty much refusing to ship until I had pressured him to do so
Trying to figure out quotes right now, but this may not work out--seems like.
