From my research they work well with the Macht seat belt bracket and floor mount which apparently gets you low enough to the floor and better centred.

My only missing part of the equation is that I need the wiring and connector from a standard BMW seat which I believe is for the wiring for the airbag. I'm just struggling to find the part numbers to see if I can source these from BMW without having the find a seat from the wreckers. I believe you can easily code out the passenger sensor mat.

My car doesn't have seat heating so this doesn't concern me.
Do you have manual or power seats. I had power and heat when I replaced mine. I took the existing control box from the bottom of the seat and ordered the exact same harness in the seats. Since the CS seats are manual, I basically stripped the entire harness except for the airbag and heat. No errors at all. Here's the part I used.
