    e36 manual bucket seats into my '79 sixer

    Hey guys....I have two front seats in great shape from an e36 m3 that I'm trying to install in my '79 633....of course the bolt pattern's not the same so the m3 seats won't bolt right in....does anyone know if there's some sort of adapter kit available that would make this easier? I don't want to end up jerry-riggin these seats....that won't be pretty. Thanks

    Have you looked at the possibilty of removing your 633 seats from the rails and attempting to mount the E36 seats to them (E36 rails removed...) ?

    Might work.

    There are a number of seat adapters on ebay maybe one would work. Just enter bmw seat adapters
