e90 m-sport seats into e91 SE?

jedi-knight83 · 06-04-2017, 05:44 PM

Hello. fairly new hear.

Just picked up a 2006 330d E91 touring SE.

The seats offer about as much support as an old park bench. Would the deeper bolstered M-Sport seats from an E90 saloon fit?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, front seats from E90 would fit.

Same exact seats. Easy install.

I’m late to this thread but can’t find much on seat upgrades. Do you guys know what would be the best seat upgrade for my E91? The base model seats are awful. And I they are not power seats. Would sport seats fit and work? Or is it better to get some nice race seats Recaro or something similar? Just unsure of the install on a nonOE seat set up. Any input is appreciated

Sport seats will fit and install just fine. I found mine on car-part.com

Great, thanks for the info. How much did you pay for a pair?

$400. I basically stole them

Wow! Yeah you did! I can’t find a pair under 700.00!!! Did yours include shipping? I love the look of the Recaros or NRGs but I think with all the mounting brackets and extras to get them to fit it would be super pricey. Not many people have chimmed in on this topic.

I drove down to WV to pick them up. Good excuse to take a fall drive through the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Very nice! Those look great! I found a few leads on car-parts.com, so fingers crossed 🤞. How was the install? I don’t have power seats so I will have to follow the thread on how to hook them up.
