    So I may have a line on some blue heated sport seats out of a convertible. It would come with the wiring harness and console w/ switches too. Now I know the leather stitching is different (horozontal), and I don't think there's a 4-door rear seat that matches. Has anyone done or seen this combo before? Does it look goofy with the different stitched leathers? Is the blue color slightly different too, or does that match at least?
    Go for it. I've got the same "issue" with my car, and it's not that noticible, plus the horizantally stitched cab seats look nicer IMHO. Besides the stitching being different, the M3 seat doesn't have piping either, which kind of sticks out when you compare the front and rear headrests. Just keep your front headrests when you swap the seats and you'll be fine.

      Woah, thanks 87Blue. Can anyone confirm this? Full M3/cabby interior in a 4-door? Baller!

      Robrez, did you do this with blue seats? For some reason, the color looks slightly different to me on the M3/cabby vs. regular seats...no?

              Sorry, no my seats are black. 88 and up cars used indigo blue while <88 used Pacific blue. They are different, but I've never seen the two side-by-side to know how much so. Check the interior color code sticky above. BTW, I'm pretty sure the cab rear seat will be too skinny, unless you're planning to use the extra space for a roll bar

                with everyone going black, i would wait it out. Blue done right can look nice. I think you should swap your map pockets and pulls to black though.....

                in short, Accent the blue with black

                  Thanks, Aptyp! Really haven't done a whole lot yet, but she cleaned up pretty good.
