    Default will E38 seats work in an e34?

    Anything will fit with a bit of work, as for it directly bolting in the car I wouldn't think it would the e38 is a bigger car might have wider mounting points.

    Probably not to be attempted unless you've done it before or are very confident.

    Plug-n-Play or Easy Swap: (with minor electrical modification if drastic upgrade...like the Active Comfort Seats from the 750iL)
    • E34 ~ E32
    • E39 ~ E38


    Requires Electrical & Mechanical Modification/Fabrication:
    • E34 ~ E39
    • E34 ~ E38
    • E32 ~ E39
    • E32 ~ E38
