[ASK] Is Recaro Sporster from another car fit in M3 E92?

I have noticed that Recaro Sportster from Renault Megane RS or Vauxhall Corsa VXR have similarity with the BMW Performance Seat from E92.

However, I learned that the BMW Performance have different style. The BMW Performance use button / knob for adjusting the back rest while the ones from Vauxhall or Renault use lever.

Does anyone ever tried to retrofit the Recaro Sporster from Vauxhall or Renault to an E92 (M3 or non M3)? I wonder if the base would fit or need modification.

Thank you in advance for all inputs.
Josh

I would think all you need are the mounts.

All Recaro seats use a knob to adjust back rest angle.

I like how those seats in the second pic have a big lever for adjusting the height. I have the BMW performance seats and they are fixed at a high setting or low setting.
