    Vader seat install

    does anybody know what it would take to put vader seats from an e36 into an e30 m3? What brackets and sliders do I use? I'm considering doing this instead of redoing my stock seats.

    Thanks,

    Just use the brackets/sliders on the vaders. You will have to fabricate adapters though for the e30 bolt pattern.

    I love my vaders.

      Thats what I thought. did you just drill/weld the stock brackets to get them to work?

        Ryan would you do it yourself? Or would you have someone else do it?

          I made some adapter plates out of 1/4" steel flatbar. I basically drilled two holes in a piece of bar the correct distance away from eachother.

            i am just going to drill two holes for my e46 sports. Only two because the seat belt slider bolt hole and front hole lines up.
