E46 seat mounting points same as E92?

Does anyone know if the seat rail mounting points on the E46 M3 are the same as the E92's?

Much different, e46 mounts will not fit in the e9x chassis.

Thanks for the clarification. I was wondering if OEM CSL seats can be retrofitted for the E92.

Recaro Pole Positions can be used with e92 floormounts:



Essentially, same thing.

Nice. The only thing is the OEM BMW CSL mounts have a system where you can "recline" the seat towards the front and still have use of the rear sets. *Hint *Hint, someone needs to come out with a similar bracketing system.

That's true, but seat sliders will work also.
