Either way, I don't have folding seats either in my e90. That is what my SUV is for.

E93s do not have split folding rear seats. Instead, the rear seat back folds down as a single piece to provide a flat surface for extra luggage space when there are no rear passengers. So, you cannot make the car a three-seater; it is either two or four. Furthermore, unlike with the E90 and E92, folding down the seat does not give you full access to the trunk. You either get no trunk access or, optionally, a generously sized pass-through.

it's the same with folddown seats, you can't fit more than 1 in the trunk. So it's 1 in trunk, lay out tarp or old sheet to line the seat back from the fold down seats, and 3 in the back. But it's less messy and easier to stack the 3 tires in the back.

One of the selling points (for me) was how much space there is in teh back of the coupe...even more when you fold down the rear seats. I've transported 4 19inch wheels and tires in the back of the coupe!!
I think that is amazing. |

It is true that you don't get the same expanse of unobstructed space you would in an E90 or E92 with the seat down, but it is still very useful for transporting a large item, or reaching in to get a piece of luggage when the top is down, or for quickly hiding illegals when crossing into the states (kidding, just kidding on that last one). |

No idea about the Sedan, but 100% fold down seats in the coupe, I was shocked by this and by how much space it creates, who would have thought an M3 could be more practical than a 5 series lol

I remember reading a thread on here for a DIY to convert sedans with no fold down seats since the parts are available but now I can't find that thread.....?
Apparently all the bolt holes are there and you just need to get the necessary parts, am I correct on this one?

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ight=fold+rear anyways, this is an awesome write up. You do need to source your split seat back though, but yes, then you need to just wire up your cable and release. Seems pretty straight forward. There's a few E90 black leather rear interiors for sale on the M3 forum here, check the interior for sale thread (you'll want M3 Novillo leather vs the crappy non-M3 leatherette) someone should do this!!!
