Installed the Sparco Chrono Touring drivers seat.
Mounting the slider rails and base wasn't the easiest job...but tolerable.
E36 Base keeps seat tight against the center console hump and you cannot slide the seat as far forward as the OEM seat. I mounted the E30 lower seat belt as it didn't have a manual tensioner.....no clearance for manual tensioner.
SO.....black tape over the airbag light that is on constantly. I'll need to find a used E36 manual tensioner with 3 wire connector to hookup and hide under the seat, to eliminate airbag light.

Seat is ok...would rate it a 6.5 out of 10. Definitely more comfortable than my stock cloth drivers seat...not near as supportive as my M Sport seat in the Coupe.

PICS:




yeah...it clashes with the grey passenger seat.....
