show me your seat covers

BlackSapphireZ · 11-13-2008, 02:50 PM

my seat is showing some wear and want to cover it up.

price and where you got em.

IF someone has a powered, heated, leather seat they want to trade for a non powered, heated, sport seat, I'd do it. if you already have a cover, it won't make a difference anyway

thankss

jgorman13 · 11-13-2008, 02:51 PM

if you have non-powered, why not just get recaros or sparcos

pbdm4k · 11-13-2008, 03:24 PM

I've got my powered non heated non sport seats I'd be looking to pawn off.

I'll be removing them over the winter and installing Brides.

Cept I'm kinda far for shipping.

BlackSapphireZ · 11-13-2008, 08:32 PM

bun warmers are a MUST!

i'm not looking to get recaros....stock seats or M sport seats will work just fine.

GP20 · 11-13-2008, 08:48 PM

Why not just buy the OEM (removable) seat covers or the wet okole seat covers? I have the black OEM removable seat cover for my M seat (I only use it for my driver seat), and it's actually pretty decent.

Or you can buy a new OEM seat cover for $700~800. Install is very easy. Or just have a local shop re-upholster the seat for you; should be cheaper.

bmw seat covers look rather cheap. and if the cover moves around a lot i can't deal with it.

Reupholstering but i have heating element...doesn't that come off with the leather?

Nope.

i would love to get some aftermarket seats but the cost for the brackets rapes you. My dad got some nice seat covers for his 08 x5 for work. I think my mom got them from autozone. They look great in his car and not cheap. He only has it on the driver seat - i'll try to snap a pic if i remember tomorrow

jgorman13 · 11-14-2008, 10:39 AM

WET OKOLE. completely slipped my mind. I had them on my 03 TT. Custom fit, looks amazing, hold up against everything

Bun warmers cause sperm loss in men.
Operating temps of seat warmers are 95-105*F, sperm production suffers above 96*F.

Just an FYI.

BlackSapphireZ · 11-14-2008, 06:41 PM

our seats have longer seat backs so not "ANY" covers will work...

someone said heating element comes off with leather and it can not be separated...

So this car also serves as a form of birth control? That's good to know.

Hell yeah, no back seat for a kid anyway. It's just a logical preventative measure from BMW so you can continue to drive your Z4 forever
