I must say, those look very sexy in E30's.

They are bolted down through the proper mounting holes on the seat slider brackets. The seat still has full funtionality and range of movement in all adjustments.Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

Nice thread title !!!
How tall are you Jordan? Looks like it works out to give you a bit more headroom, yes?
And to the thigh extentions go out further than a stock sport seat?
I'm 6'1" - and almost hitting my head on the roof....urrrr
Dam, I didn't expect you to get vaders...last shot of your car I saw looked like you even removed a gas tank to save weight... ???Originally posted by Matt-Bhey does anyone know anyone who gets upset and makes electronics?Comment

Looks really good man. They go great with the M3 rear seat.Comment

For those who say Vaders are too big and bulky for E30s...

5'9 220lbs, and yes it definately sits you ALOT lower in the car. I just got back from attacking some corners at speed. It makes such a huge difference when you aren't thrown around in your seat in corners.Originally posted by george gravesHow tall are you Jordan?

Yeah, the thigh extention goes out pretty far. I *think* the pictures I showed of them installed in the car show them all the way extended. The feel best for me about 1/2in retracted from full extention.Originally posted by george gravesAnd to the thigh extentions go out further than a stock sport seat?
I removed the fuel tank to flush it out, strip the cosmoline off, polish the black gloss paint its finished in, then give it a coat of wax 8)Originally posted by george gravesDam, I didn't expect you to get vaders...last shot of your car I saw looked like you even removed a gas tank to save weight... ???Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

Only the 2 front bolts, and the 1 outside rear bolt are in right now. The seats do not budge so I'm not sure I will put the last one in. I don't think drilling through the floor pan will work for that bolt, given the slope and what is under the car in that spot. I won't know until I take a better look under the car.Originally posted by lukasbmwHow did you do the 4th inner rear bolt on the change in floorpan height area?Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

I'd like to just bolt the e36 sport seats I'm getting rather than mess with brackets... but I'd be worried that the one rear bolt holding it down would possibly break in a collision. Jordan, you think there is any way that the second bolt in the rear could be used as well?Originally posted by Grueliusand i do not know what bugg brakes are.Comment

The second bolt could be used for sure, I'm not sure what is under it tho. Hence why I haven't put it in yet. I'm not going to blindly drill into the floor not knowing what I may drill into. Its just too friggin hot today to sit out in the sun and jack the car up. I musta lost 10lbs of sweat just installing them like i did. Its 95º here right now, was 102º earlier.Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast
