Someone correct me if I’m wrong but the later models had the horizontal stitching. I think your seats are correct for the time period. My vert has horizontal stitching but it’s a 92

Those seats have definitely been recovered. I don't believe rears came with vertical stitching or piping. Its a super clean reupholster though, there is no stitching that goes down the middle of the seats.
The front headrest and backing doesn't seem to match the rest of the fronts.Last edited by Mike36; 08-30-2018, 02:55 PM.sigpicComment

In the US late model 318's with vinyl had vertical stitching like hardtops.. not sure what spec your car is but they are most likely correct given AUS typically got 320's and rarely 325i's

Well the fronts did but all the rears didn't, all the 318 verts I've seen didn't have them.sigpicComment

again, this stitching is correct for vinyl but convertibles with leather got m3-style seats. The convertible and m3 were both the top of the line for the 3 series believe it or not
