Retrofitting BMW Performance seat on 1M ( Advice needed )

[uzone02]

How to properly retrofitting a BMW Performance seat on 1M from a 135i ?
( basically is swapping both seats, I have both cars )

One is electronic ( 1M ) one is manual ( Performance seat )

Can any expert share his thought on swapping module box ? wiring ? Coding ?

Don't wanna any light on dash and error in ISTA

Thanks man.

If the seats aren't causing any lights in the 135i, I would recommend replicating the coding for seats in that car in the 1M... all coding related to the seats should be the same.

I've never worked with the performance seats, but I would use the car they are currently in as a template for wiring, too. Since they are manual seats, I would assume the only thing that might need wiring are the seat heaters. When I swapped the M2 comp seats into my 1M, I was able to reuse the seat modules from the factory 1M seats; plug and play. Since these are coming out of another E82, I wouldn't be surprised if they just plug right in. The only reason for keeping the 1M seat modules with M2 comp seats is because the CAN protocol changed in later model F8x cars.

Much appreciated !

My 135 seat don't have any electronic function beside airbag & positioning,

I think would be easier

Hi mate,

if the 135 had electric seats originally you'll be fine, note the bmw performance seats will need coding, also if you have heated seat option in your 1m you can add the additional wiring for the seat occupancy sensor and the seat heating. it may be NLA now though.
