Considering switching my sports seats for OEM Leather front seats.

Does anyone have any for sale, and if so how much and location?

TIA

Not sure what you're looking for here?

I have a pair of beige Sport seats requiring light restoration. And a pair of black non Sport seats which are very solid.

I'm just trying to get an idea of what's available and how much they are.

Are the sports seats original Z3? Were these an option or standard on skme models. Any pics and prices for what you have?

A decent pair of standard leather seats are going to cost around £150-£350 depending on colour and how keen the seller is to move them on as they're bulky.

A decent pair of Sport seats are a desireable item and are going to cost more like £500-£800. You'll find bargains here harder to come by.

PM me if you want and I can send further details of what I have with prices.

Any idea on value for the ones I have fitted? They have been fitted to the Z3 electric seat mechanism so the electrics all work fine. The control button hangs loose though as you can see in the photo!

They look like a nice choice for a Z3.
I am an OEM nut but I like them as well and would keep them if they were in a car and I bought it like that.
They have been used for a reason, non sport OEM seats are crap.

I have to agree with HT, my OEM seats in the 1.9 Z3 get real uncomfortable after an hours driving. The MC seats are far, far superior and have never felt uncomfortable at all, in over 200K miles of driving. Are MC/MR seats the same as Z3 "sports" seats do we know?

Hmm perhaps I should keep them then! They aren't uncomfortable as such, But I do like neat and tidy and didn't like the control buttons flopping about loose. Maybe I'll try and rig something up to hold them in place!

Btw what are MC seats?
