Been restoring the e28 I picked up a few months ago. Right now interior is my focus. Pulled seats and bench out. Blacked out the headliner. Washed the carpets several times... Ground/rustolium/primed a lot of the floor under the carpet. Thought I was going to be able to put the seats back in, but I found out that the e28 driver seat that came with the car was broken. The rear base brackets were broken off so the actual seat is only attached to the base by two bolts. Anyway the thing looks like complete trash and is a pile of shredded horse hair. I picked up a e34 front seats and ground off the front sliders so it can be bolted to the floor. Question: are the e34 seat belt receivers compatible with the e28 belts? I would like to use the e34 receivers since they are already there. The e28 receivers can be used if they are bent away from the seat, since they run into the edge of the seat. Not having seats for my e28 for two weeks is producing serious motivation for completing the interior work...

Depends what year the e28 is. If 82-early 85 then no the seat receivers are different. If late 85-88 then you are good.

Good, mines an 87!
