Items look great, however, that's not the type II steering wheel...that's the regular flat-bottom performance steering wheel.

Types I and II are the electronic versions of the performance steering wheel.

Love the seats!

I love the seats! How much did they cost? Do they integrate airbags? What type of adjustments do they have (just tilt and slide or do they go up and down too?)? Thanks in advance for the info!

PS... that cat does not look amused!

What adjustments do you have on these seats? Just the slide back and forth?

You can...not sure if they are still available but there is a company that imports them and lists them on eBay. They set you back a little over $5000 and they require special programming and module (for the built in airbags) since they are not made to work with US-spec cars.

I considered them at one point and someone who got them to work on his M3 was charging $2000 to make them work with a US car. They are nice, but $7000 total is way too much for seats in my eyes.

Look great OP. Look forward to some pics of it all in the car!

How did you get them ordered? You said through M? Would be interested myself.

Thanks

Mark.

Don't turn your back...that cat will tear your sweet seats up and then use them for a toilet, then all of us will be heart broken.

The grey plastic parts need to be painted black.
