In my E36 I had manual adjustment E46 ///M seats. I wired them up my self. They weren't in the best shape since they came out of a wreck though. Guy I sold them to said he would sell them back to me for a pittance of what they are really worth. I'm contemplating that right now. pic for comparison.

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
You can use the E46 seats, the lower plastic trims I believe can be swapped in to match as well from your E53 seats.

Member XVII has done it with 330xi sport seats:

I would agree with you 7 or 8 years ago, but the styling and interior of the E53 is so dated compared to today's cars it doesn't make a difference...lol!

I think I pimped Bianca98 about the camo a day or two after the original post, and offered the kind & gentle suggestion that he invest in a wheelskin if the steering wheel leather was degraded. My kind suggestion was studiously ignored . . . I guess amongst the cheeseheads, camo is a necessary cultural signifier, like brats and Leinenkugel. Any anthropologists out there, take note.

You Jackwagons! People from Iowa apparently like camo! Cheeseheads like to put GB helmets or "GO PACK GO!" on the side. I say again, Xexilia has no camo!

My bad; I got so excited about an opportunity to bust cheesehead chops that I misread your post. Of course, having visited both states, I, like Iowahawk, frequently confuse the natives ..... apologies

For those readers not yet familiar with the brilliance of Iowahawk, and his hilarious [but loving ...] take on midwestern culture, see iowahawk: Midwest Lutherans Largely Reject Violence and its related articles. Uff Dah!
