Hey,
I have recently purchased an '82 316 - I love the thing!
The drivers seat is raaaather tatty and I'd love to replace it, and would be happy to replace all the seats to get a good match etc.
But i'm really struggling to find second hand E21 interiors - do any from other eras fit? (E30 etc?) or can anyone generally recommend anywhere for me to get some new seats??!
FYI I'm in the UK!

junk yards. Ebay. friends. And no E30 seats will not fit without modification....see my thread about it.

If you try ebay.de, they're all over there. Still a lot of e21's in Germany. But they might be a little hard to come by in England - though the e30 front seat conversion would look pretty nice! It just takes a little cutting and welding.

Check www.bmwe21.net/forum There are a bunch of E21 owners on that list from England that may be able to help you.

Yeah as jimdemonic said. I would recommend eBay or junk yard. Or you can try the FAQ for a list of places you can try. I would also recommend: http://www.wallothnesch.com

upholster if its sport seats. they look best custom stock unit rather than the OEM stuff, unless its M style, or alpina or tuner custom. The standard stuff back in the day really looks outdated.
