It depends on the specific seat outfitted on the car. Some got the bare seat backs, some got the pockets. The majority of them got the pockets, but I think in the early years the bare seatback was more common.

All the trash and car seat has moved to X5, lol. I have the 540 all to myself now. I'm starting to regret selling the headers greatly.

It's not at your level yet, but no kids in car anymore helps greatly.
You know, I think you really missed a chance for a sexual innuendo in the thread title. Something about bare backs...
Either way, we could spend a few days digging up all the answers. Or we can just wait for QSilver to jump in and -bam- 20 detailed images with all the info we could ever hope for...

1997 M3 (SOLD) :o 2000 528i Sport (SOLD)
sport seats no pockets clean lines.sporty not busy.
OMG...Im LOL because just the other day,I was trying to find something in my pic library and opened the image below...which was from a previous discussion about the sport seat backs...with some having map pockets (bag) and some not having it.....and was about to send the pic to trash thinking it was something probably not needed...glad I didn't.
From the part database...it appears that the (Montana) leather sport seats were offered with or without "bags". If your seat code has "07" then it has the "bag" (map pocket):
(12-way sport Montana leather seat w/07 (bag) option)
(BW540san's 12-way sport Motana leather seats without 07 (bag) option)

I would rather have e38 comfort seat pockets, much cleaner looking, and they never look stretched out. Granted they do have a tendency to break.
I really hate it when people use the magazine pockets in my car, it stretches them out to never look the same again!
