Mikan 173 Report post Posted May 22, 2018 Looking for some comfort seats for my e39 touring. My wife is 34 weeks pregnant and the sports seats just aren't going to cut it anymore. Need something with less bolster and more lumbar. As I understand it, e39 or e38 seats will do, as long as they are from a post 2000 model (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). Prefer black, prefer wellington (or someone happy to ship) but just looking for a solution here! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good on you for working hard to keep your wife happy during the beached whale/'just get it out of me' zone! Olaf 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sports seats in your car is one of the most comfortable sports seats imo! the leather is softer than any other and had more padding/cushion than most others. The sports seats in my E39 sedan were much harder leather and less padded despite being NZ new. Comfort seats will be good though! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long as the foam isn’t deformed 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fabled contours!

The sports seats in my E39 sedan were much harder leather and less padded despite being NZ new. Comfort seats will be good though! Those sports seats are indeed wonderful. I am viewing this entirely as a temporary move. Partial, even, but I don't rate my chances of just getting a passenger seat. 14 minutes ago, Breaker said: https://www.trademe.co.nz/trade-me-motors/car-parts-accessories/bmw/interior/auction-1638270103.htm take the whole interior Yeah, saw these. Would probably be perfect (if I lived in Auckland). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
