    HELP ! Query about seats...

    Hi,
    I'm looking at purchasing an M tech1 interior (seats and door panels) for my FOUR door 86 325e, however based on the door panels in the images of the interior, it seems that it was previously in a TWO door which isn't an issue, I will simply fabricate an extension for the rear panels and cut holes for the window winder and door handles , THOUGH my dilemma is that I was wondering if the rear seats will fit into a four door or whether the 2 door seats are a different width or height, if anyone can help me address this issue before I go putting my money behind an interior that doesn't even fit it would be much appreciated.
    Cheers !

      That's perfect, thanks for that, much appreciated, by the way has anyone got any idea what this type of thing is worth and whether there's a market for door panels if I were to sell them?

        no market for door panels, if you can find the seats (I am assuming you are looking for the sport seats leg bolster type) in Australia you will pay about $350-$500 for a set that needs retrimming, if you something nice and presentable expect to pay $1000. The sport seats were very rare in Australia, and even a crappy torn up pair is worth a pretty penny.

        My suggestion is find a junk yard nearby and grab the door panels that fit your car, expect to pay a lot for the seats!
