E87 and e82 seat mount difference

[Marco22]

Hi! I purchased some floor mount to install sparco seat in my track oriented 128i, but after I purchased them I realised that the floor mounts where specific for e87 models. I taught they were the sames as e82 and e90, is somebody able to tell me if the floor mount hole are the same in a e87 and a e82 or not? If not, what are the differences, I don’t care for the seat belt mounting point as I will install harness. Thank you!

Sorry for my average english, I’m a french speaking canadian

A search in realoem.com seems to indicate E82 and E90 are the same but E87 is different.

Your english is great - much better than my French

Sorry I didn’t see your posts. I’ve got the time to install them in my car, and they fit great! The 4 seat mount point are the same in the e87 and in my e82. The bracket are not ideal for me because they are a little bit heavy and difficult to install for two of the four bolt but otherwise fit great!
Thank you a lot for your replies!
