Thinking about changing my comfort seats

Hi all,

I am thinking about changing my comfort seats to sport seats. I have a few questions of the possibility of doing such a thing.

Can this be done?
If so, is it a major undertaking to do such a thing?
Any idea on what a set of seats would cost me?
Could I convert seats from an E70?

Any help would be appreciated.

Mike

Took me a while locating the Tips and tricks but i finaly found it! Not sure if this will help much, but all I've heard was that the e53 Sport seats were hard to find..might want to go the route that Lionkang went. Good luck!

hi ekim just wondering why you wanted to perform such a swap? I have sports seats and while they hug well when driving fast, they are rather hard and unsupportive at times

I have a really bad back, believe it our not, my back feels better in my race car than it does in any other car I have ever had other than my 04 X5 4.4 with sport buckets....

I guess I need that ultra firm seat.
