Re: Electric bmw seats

I'd say no on the head rest and arm rest but others wise I like them.

Re: Electric bmw seats

I like them as is.

I was planning on doing this same thing, as I have a few BMWs and they make for comfortable road trip seats, so I can imagine on the truck they feel great. If you do not mind me asking, how tall are you? Also, what did you use to mount them to the cab?

Re: Electric bmw seats

I dig them-had the same seats in a 540i, arm rests fold up when not in use but come in dang handy on long trips!

Re: Electric bmw seats

I'm 5'10'', so far I had to do two holes on the floor for the backside of the seats today I'll look for rivet head lugs to make easy the rail go back back and front.
If anybody can tell me how to unlock the seat belts please help me
Thank you.

Re: Electric bmw seats

hmmm I like the seat's though I would either loose the headrest's and make them smooth on top (no holes for headrest's) or just use the headrest bracing and design a smaller low profile headrest design so it blends more to the truck's design ....Just an idea....
