Hence I know that he will want them for ease of reduction vs. losing functionality of the car

Curt2000 · 03-06-2013, 12:26 AM

you paid how much for 5lb savings?

I think I'll be happy enough with the weight loss from getting rid of the stock seats.

This is definitely a "money is no object" build.

cost of steering wheel?

bmw13 · 03-07-2013, 01:46 PM

Would it be possible to do the same front seat set up in a 1M? I too prefer the OEM mounts and sliders of the GTS. How much would it cost in total to swap to seats/ mounts/ sliders/ belts etc.?

Random question, by chance do you have the part number for the GTS hood vent, or even the paint code color? Beautiful build.

Yet it should be possible.

It seems there is enough clearance on both sides and it should fit 1M well.

Please PM me for more info.

GTS parts are numberless

Pn if you want.

Sorry to say, but pretty stupid to post this, since you are not allowed to do this.
Keep your fingers crossed that M does not see this.

Did I say that I'm having the original catalogue?! NO! I have a Word Document created by myself where the partnumbers standing in. This is allowed ! Or are the partnumbers owned by ///M ? ..........
