Looking good. Love those seats. I run a Pole Position in my E81 and I love it. I sit really low now, but it’s perfect for me and since I’m 1,85 m, the driving position is much better than stock. Getting out is a bit more challenging because of the pronounced shape of the PP but even at my age I manage just fine.
YES! These are also my dream seats but for a Hyundai… curious what made you pick the Sporster CS model over the Sportser GT which seems to be the more popular model between the 2. Nice video.
Loving the 135I content brother. These cars are still too "new" for me to call then future classics, but an argument could be made for them to be future classics. I'm toying with the idea of selling my 135i to fund big power mods for my F32 440I but man, that's a hard decision. The 135i has that classic small car feel and I'm not sure I'm ready to trade that for a 700+hp F32 that feels bigger and heavier. Keep up the great content. It's inspiring for E82 owners.
Looks really good, actually prefer the black over the red. I think the red door cards accents work well also. Personally only bit of red I think would look better black is the remaining rear seat trim/side bolsters, think those would look good black. As far as seats making a significant difference to the drive, feel, comfort, driving position for the vehicle, I could not agree more. When I ordered my car I absolutely had to go with the 18 way heated, cooled seat options, despite the outrageous price over the standard 4 way or optional 14 way. The 18 way heated, cooled seats were a must. Oh and I think red seatbelts would pop in your M1 clone if you keep some of the red interior. Nice work, that clone is looking better and better. Looking forward to seeing it all come together.
I’m a little confused just looked in the parts section of the build looking to get some of these for my e46 m3 but a little confused on what all I need for the sliding brackets do I just need that stuff or the side mounts as well?
I would love to see you do some weight reduction on this whip. Carbon fibre doors, carbon roof, carbon trunk spoiler. This whip is so clean, love the seats.
I didn't see the video yet, but is it correct that seat heating isn't possible to work on these seats? That would be a pretty big disadvantage for me. Are there any good alternatives for the OEM (sport)seats were the seatheating would still be intact?
Being 6'2, have you sat in pole positions buddy? Theyre really not comfortable if youre over 5'10. Especially if you wanted to run harnesses at any point, the harness holes will be below your shoulders. I tried a bunch of seats out recently for mine, dead set on some pole positions, and even though theyre the nicest looking ( im 6'3 ) theyre just not as comfy as some other offerings. The SPG XL are much better for people of our size, But i ended up deciding i was going to go for Corbeau pro series XL or something similar as they were unreal comfy.
Very nice!! I’d say swap the back seat bolsters to black for the mean time until you can decide on what to do with the door panels. I think it’ll look more uniformed
To be fair you should have weighed the difference with those mounting brackets in the base of the floor. Also, the old seats had all the airbag stuff. Great vid overall tho 🎉🎉

Sell me ur other fender flares if you still gonna get em
Good call that was the main eye sore I saw to make it look cleaner.
definitely the way to go imo the red door cards look great though beautiful accent
I definitely like the seats i do think all black interior would just complete this interior now and make the seats pop even more
Perfect! Seats are awesome. You don’t slide around in the Alcantara. And the angle! Love mine.

Colorado n5x has alcantara pillars also you could get dye from mashimarho or seat doctor if you ended up wanting to get rid of the red that is left.

Make sure to get the "ABE" version of the pole positions. Much friendlier to get in and get out and it has a wider base for more room and comfort.
Yessir, those are the street/track version. Rather than full track 😎
@@ThicWhips yup! Also no FIA expiration to worry about. 👍🏻

For sportsters in e46, you need:

Floor Mounts: tinyurl.com/mpa96vh2

i’ve heard woth the macht shnell floor mounts your seat is not centered to tje steering wheel ?what’s your take on it
I disagree. Seating position feels dead center
Love these seats , i coded all my lights off with Protool. I saved 160 lbs out of my e93 too.
I would love to see you do some weight reduction on this whip. Carbon fibre doors, carbon roof, carbon trunk spoiler. This whip is so clean, love the seats.
i was not sure to go with bride or recaro seats for my e90 and i think you just solved it for me lol
Looks great with the red accents! Way better than the OG red seats. 👏🏽
I didn't see the video yet, but is it correct that seat heating isn't possible to work on these seats? That would be a pretty big disadvantage for me. Are there any good alternatives for the OEM (sport)seats were the seatheating would still be intact?
I believe you can option the seats with heating

Yessir I got some arriving today!!
@@ThicWhips completely missed your pinned comment 😂
Looks great 🔥, when I did my sparco seat, I had to mount and un mount it like 3 times 😂.
Awesome love those seats. Would love to get those for my 135i but too pricey. I'm more concerned with installing my big wing right now😁
Hey man, do you still have anyone the OEM stuff from the car? If you do, you willing to sell some stuff?
Quick release on the e82?
Very stylish! 👌🏻
It looks like an awesome seating position! Wonder if they’ll fit my X6? 🤔
Check out Cobra Nagaro seats for the e92.
I see you rockin the Ryobi gear 👍👍
This is great I’m looking for how to get these installed on my 135i and this video is we just posted
These are perfect Jon! Great pick up!!
Thanks Brian!
Nice and low. Love them
Just needs that BMW Performance re-upholstery! 😝
Really great setup Loveit!!
Hi Thic. The Recaro are nice. I kinda like that red OEM seat on that car. Nevertheless, still nice.
Not sure if a red start button would look good in there, but definitely do a gloss black ring around the button.
You didn't add the brackets and sliders into the weight of the Recaros. Probably 5-10 lbs per side I would imagine
Nice bro, im proud of u !!😦
I WANT !
only thing missing is the S65 4.0 litre V8 !
YES MI RICH FREN😂🔥
Love how detailed your builds have been lately 👌🏾
Looks sooo good!
Stunning brraaaaw ❤😮
Looks great my brotha
Beyond jealous, now imma have to go buy some for my 1er, you’re a bad influence you 😂
Thank you
New seats look killer, have the rears out makes it look like they should be in there. 🫡🤘🏻🤘🏻
I wish I was in the states so I could buy this from you 😢
awesome video!
Nice man!
The real flex would be to replace the red leather with alcantara door cards
To be fair you should have weighed the difference with those mounting brackets in the base of the floor. Also, the old seats had all the airbag stuff. Great vid overall tho 🎉🎉
That’s true, I’d say 3 pounds (ish) with brackets and sliders per seat
Selling the red guys ? 👀👀
i had a heart attack for a moment when i saw the deleted video 😮💨
Haha that video had a messed up ending, had to reupload!
First😂
First
M5 on E40 vs a CTS-V on MS109?!? Of course the V won.
