Swapping Interior

Hi all,

My friend has unfotunately wrecked his E82 and I plan to buy his interior now he's breaking the car. We are both leather, both manual adjustment, both M-Sport, only the colour differs.

How simple is the swap? It'll include all seats plus door cards and rear trim.


This also means I'll be selling a full black leather interior from my car. How simple would this be to sell and at what price?

Pulling and swapping should not be all that bad. The first time I pulled my rear and passenger seat it took me about 30 minutes. The door panels might be a bit more of a headache if you don't have any panel removal tools (harbor freight cheap).

For selling, I see this being a giant pain in the @#%$^... good luck...
Size and weight make it difficult if not local.

Great to see someone doing this, I always have had dreams of swapping interior but never gotten around to it

Well I do still plan on this but my friend is dreaming regarding the price he thinks his interior is worth. He's put it up for sale but has had no interest; I'll let him suffer a little more, come back to reality and make him an insulting offer + a few beers.
